Russian photo postcard Tsar Nicholas II and son in uniform c. 1910s

Scarce photo of the Tsar and his son, the Tsarevich Alexei Nikolaeivich dressed in their finest uniforms, posing in front of a door. Probably taken at the Peterhof estate, near St. Petersburg.

In 1918 Alexei, along with his father was executed by firing squad. He was by then thirteen. To this day he has not been buried with the rest of his family.

Undated, but Alexei was born in 1904 so it would be in the 1910s.

Unused.

Some light scratches on photo. Crease LL corner, also black area in that corner. On back, light smudging, rust spot.

Nicholas II (1868 –1918), known as Saint Nicholas in the Russian Orthodox Church, was the last Emperor of Russia, ruling from 1 November 1894 until his forced abdication on 15 March 1917. His reign saw the fall of the Russian Empire from one of the foremost great powers of the world to economic and military collapse. He was given the nickname Nicholas the Bloody or Vile Nicholas by his political adversaries due to the Khodynka Tragedy, anti-Semitic pogroms, Bloody Sunday, the violent suppression of the 1905 Russian Revolution, the executions of political opponents, and his perceived responsibility for the Russo-Japanese War (1904-1905) Soviet historians portray Nicholas as a weak and incompetent leader whose decisions led to military defeats and the deaths of millions of his subjects.

 

After the 1905 Revolution, they fled St Petersburg for security reasons, spending their time in Tsarskoe and Peterhof.

 

Following the February Revolution of 1917, Nicholas abdicated on behalf of himself and his son, the Tsarevich Alexsei Nikolaeivich. He and his family were imprisoned and transferred to Tobolsk in late summer 1917. On 30 April 1918, Nicholas, Alexandra, and their daughter Maria were handed over to the local Ural Soviet council in Ekaterinburg; the rest of the captives followed on 23 May. Nicholas and his family were eventually executed by their Bolshevik guards on the night of 16/17 July 1918
