Exceptionally rare matte-finish 3.25 x 4.5 photo of Tsaritsa Alexandra Feodorovna seated in an elegant half-length pose, signed beautifully in black ink, "Alexandra." The photo is affixed to its original 4.75 x 6.5 mount. In very good to fine condition, with fading to the image and some creasing to the mount. Accompanied by a vintage leather picture frame. An appreciably rare photo of the last Empress consort of Russia, who along with her husband, Emperor Nicholas II, and her five children, Olga, Tatiana, Maria, Anastasia, and Alexei, were murdered by Bolshevik revolutionaries in 1918. This marks only the second signed portrait of Alix of Hesse that we have ever offered.
