EDITORS COMMENTS
In this charming photograph, taken around 1890, Russian Tsesarevich Nicholas II (future Tsar Nicholas II) and Prince George of Greece share a light-hearted moment with some of the younger members of their expansive royal family. The image captures a sense of joy and playfulness as the two cousins entertain Prince Christopher of Greece and Princess Olga of Cumberland, along with their brothers, Prince Ernst August of Cumberland and Prince Georg Wilhelm. Nicholas II, the eldest son of Tsar Alexander III of Russia, is seen holding Prince Christopher of Greece, while Prince George of Greece cradles Prince Ernst August. The children's sister, Princess Olga, stands beside them, her expression one of amusement at the antics of her older male cousins. The photograph offers a glimpse into the close relationship between the Russian and Greek royal families during this period. The two families were closely interconnected through numerous marriages and alliances, with both Nicholas II and George being grandsons of Queen Victoria of the United Kingdom. Despite the grandeur and formality often associated with royal families, this image showcases the more personal and playful side of their lives. The children's laughter and the relaxed body language of their elders suggest a warm and loving family atmosphere. The photograph is a valuable historical record of the European royal families during the late 19th century, offering a rare glimpse into their private lives and the close relationships that existed between various branches of the European royal houses.
