PRESENTING A GENUINE & RARE ANTIQUE HISTORIC 1871 PHOTOGRAPHIC PORTRAIT OF THE MOST COLORFUL, FLAMBOYANT & ECCENTRIC GRAND DUKE ALEXIS ALEXANDROVICH ROMANOV OF RUSSIA, TAKEN DURING HIS OFFICIAL VISIT TO THE UNITED STATES AS REPRESENTATIVE OF THE RUSSIAN NAVY ! CABINET PHOTO BY THE LEGENDARY MATTHEW BRADY. The Grand Duke Alexei Alexandrovich Romanov of Russia was born in Saint Petersburg on 14 January 1850. He was the son of Emperor Alexander II & Empress Maria Alexandrovna. He was a younger brother of Grand Duchess Alexandra Alexandrovna, Tsarevich Nikolay Alexandrovich, Alexander III of Russia, Grand Duke Vladmir Alexandrovich. He was an older brother of Duchess Maria of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha, Grand Duke Sergei Alexandrovich and Grand Duke Paul Alexandrovich.
Великий князь Алексе́й Алекса́ндрович (2 января 1850 года, Санкт-Петербург, Российская империя -1 ноября 1908 года, Париж, Франция) четвёртый сын императора Александра II и императрицы Марии Александровны. Член Государственного совета (с 1 января 1881 года), главный начальник флота и Морского ведомства и председатель Адмиралтейств-совета (1881—1905), последний генерал-адмирал Российской империи (15 мая 1883 года), адмирал (1 января 1888 года), генерал-адъютант (с 19 февраля 1880 года), почётный член Императорского православного палестинского общества. Presenting a genuine & Rare Historic Antique 1871 Cabinet Card Photo of the most colorful adventurous, flamboyant & eccentric Grand Duke Alexis Alexandrovich Romanov of Russia (1850 St Petersburg-1908 Paris), taken in New York City by the legendary Matthew Brady. When it came to Royalty, Brady was quite enthusiastic! Marked on back as a carte-de-visite, this photo pre-dates the term Cabinet-Photo. It is an early classic. Son of Tsar Alexander II & Brother of Tsar Alexander III, Grand Duke Alexis, although reared for a Naval career was somewhat of a bohemian who upset his family by falling in love with a “commoner” woman & fathered a child. In 1871 Grand Duke Alexis headed a delegation from the Russian Navy which first visited Denmark and England before arriving in the United States. He was fascinated by New York, where among other things, he sought out Matthew Brady to photograph him in several poses, front, side, sitting, standing. In Washington D.C, he was received by President Ulysses S, Grant, his wife, Secretary of State Hamilton Fish, Attorney General Ackerman and various representatives of government & military. On the West Coast, Alexis went on extensive Buffalo hunts involving Buffalo Bill Cody and General George Armstrong Custer. In the New Orleans, he enjoyed the risque Burlesque Shows. After his brother Alexander became Czar, Alexis was appointed Commander and Chief of the Navy, which in the long run, proved to be a mistake. We quote from Wiki “The Grand Duke\'s reputation as a corrupt, spendthrift dilettante, who lavished fortunes on \"ladies of no reputation\", had worsened throughout the years. Having purchased a magnificent mansion in Paris, he built a new wing of his St Petersburg palace for his mistress, ballerina Elizabeth Balletta! According to Kaiser Wilhelm II, no ship in the Russian Fleet could be purchased \"without the Grand Duke Alexis, the Commander-in- Chief of the Fleet, pocketing a quarter of a million roubles\". In 1903, thirty million roubles, half of the budget of the Russian navy had disappeared without a single new ship being launched! Grand Duke was suspected of being involved in the misappropriation”. To say the least, Grand Duke Alexis led an extremely colorful life. We suggest you read the Wikipedia article it is quite entertaining.
