Princess Vera Konstantinovna of Russiahad only thirty minutes to pack her things and leave the castle of Altenburg in Germany where she had lived since 1938. The Soviet forces could arrive at any moment. If she were captured, there was no guarantee of the Princess’s personal safety. After all, the Soviet soldiers belonged to the regime that had mur...
In April of 1909, Grand Duke Konstantin Konstantinovich of Russia1 and his wife, Grand Duchess Elizaveta Mavrikievna2, celebrated their twenty-fifth wedding anniversary. The Romanov family traditionally marked such occasions with notable exchanges of gifts, and this occasion was no exception. Grand Duke Konstantin dedicated his diary entry for the ...
Though he did not mention it in his diary, Grand Duke Konstantin had also commissioned the firm of Fabergé to create a special gift for his wife: a silver presentation frame in the Empire style. The frame incorporated hand-tinted photographs of their children and their four residences, set within an architectural portico. Made in the silver worksho...

As is the case with many objects produced by the Fabergé firm, documentation for this piece is currently unavailable to scholars, and may be lost. The records for purchases by Grand Duke Konstantin Konstantinovich have not yet been located,...
Despite its importance, the existence of the frame was relatively little known until it was loaned to a special exhibition at Pavlovsk Palacein 2007 in honor of what would have been Princess Vera’s 100th birthday. The presentation frame temporarily returned to the palace for what may have been the first time since 1918. Upon its return to the US, t...
The frame had some conservation issues which needed to be addressed. For example, for many years it had been assumed that the frame was gilded silver due to its yellowish color. However, it was revealed during conservation treatment that the entire frame was, in fact, thickly coated with nicotine from decades of exposure to cigarette smoke. Like ma...
