EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking family tree print showcases the genealogical connections between two of Russia's most influential monarchs: Peter the Great and Catherine I. Peter the Great, depicted in the top left corner with his double-headed eagle emblem, is known for his military conquests and cultural reforms that modernized Russia. Catherine I, represented in the top right, was the first wife of Peter the Great and the first woman to rule Russia as a sovereign in her own right. The circular portraits surrounding Peter and Catherine represent their early 20th century descendants, providing a fascinating glimpse into the complex web of Russian royalty. Among them is Nicholas II, the last Tsar of Russia, who is described as having abdicated in 1917 during the Russian Revolution. Nicholas II and his family were tragically executed in 1918. Other notable figures in this family tree include Alexander III, who succeeded Nicholas II and ruled from 1881 to 1894, and his wife, Empress Alexandra of Hesse and by Rhine. Their eldest daughter, Grand Duchess Alix, is shown in the tree as well, and she went on to marry Tsar Nicholas II. Additionally, there are portraits of Catherine II, also known as Catherine the Great, who ruled from 1762 to 1796 and expanded the Russian Empire significantly, as well as her granddaughter, Grand Duchess Elizabeth Fyodorovna, who became a nun after her husband's assassination. The circular design of the family tree adds an intriguing visual element, allowing viewers to easily trace the connections between these historical figures and understand their familial relationships. This print is a must-have for anyone interested in Russian history and the intricacies of its royal lineage.
