EDITORS COMMENTS
In this touching photograph, Tsar Alexander II of Russia (1818-1881) is seen cradling his youngest child, Grand Prince Pavel (1860-1919), in a moment of tender affection. The Tsar, known for his relatively hands-on fathering style, took an active interest in the nursery and was present for the births of his children. Here, he gazes down at his newborn son with a look of pride and love. The year was 1860, and this was to be the Tsaritsa Maria Alexandrovna's (1847-1880) last child. Her health had been declining due to tuberculosis, and the birth of her son brought both joy and concern. The Tsar, aware of his wife's fragile condition, was by her side throughout the labor and delivery. The photograph captures a moment of intimacy between father and son, a bond that was no doubt strengthened by the Tsar's involvement in the birth process. The image is a poignant reminder of the Tsar's role as a loving and attentive father, as well as the challenges and joys that come with the arrival of a new child. The Tsar's dedication to his family was not uncommon for the time. In fact, many European monarchs of the 19th century took an active interest in the upbringing of their children, often participating in the birth process and playing a significant role in their education and upbringing. This photograph offers a glimpse into the private world of the Russian imperial family, a world of love, joy, and the inevitable challenges that come with the arrival of a newborn. The photograph, taken by an unknown photographer, is a precious document of a moment in history, a moment that speaks to the human experience of parenthood and the enduring bond between father and child. It is a reminder that, despite the grandeur and pomp of imperial court life, the simple joys of family life remain universal.
