I was looking at Tsar Nicholas II’s 1900-1903 album and my eye got caught on this picture.
This is a picture of Tsarina Alexandra Feodorovna’s Mauve Boudoir.
If you look closely on the side table, you can see a framed photo of Alexandra’s little sister Marie or “May”.
The real photo is this:
I am posting this because I’m SO glad to see that Alix kept the memory of her little sister alive and that there is evidence that Alix remembered her in a way.

How some straight men in classic literature act: women are smart and beautiful, but they seem so out of reach.
Anyway, here is my best friend. He is so beautiful. He is the one person I can trust. We might have kissed a few times in this novel, like all good friends do. Did I mention how beautiful he is in this feminine way? It takes my breath away.
