EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the dramatic moment of an assassination attempt against Tsesarevich Nicholas of Russia in Otsu, Japan, in 1891. The color lithograph by Henri Meyer depicts a pivotal event that would shape history. In this image, we witness the bravery and quick thinking of Prince George of Greece and Denmark, who valiantly protects his cousin, the future Tsar Nicholas II. As a criminal lunges forward with a sword aimed at the crown prince's life, Prince George fearlessly intervenes to save him from harm. The illustration originally appeared in Le Petit Journal on May 30th, 1891. Known as "Le crime d'Otsu" this news item became an anecdote that spread across Europe and Asia. It serves as a testament to both the dangers faced by royalty during this tumultuous period and the bonds between family members willing to risk their lives for one another. This historic incident highlights not only the resilience of Nicholas II but also sheds light on Japanese-Russian relations during that time. It is a reminder of how political tensions can escalate into acts of violence even within royal circles. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork, we are transported back to 19th-century Japan where honor clashed with treachery and loyalty triumphed over adversity. This photograph print is not just an artistic masterpiece; it is a window into a significant moment in world history that forever changed the fate of Russia's last imperial family -the Romanovs.
