EDITORS COMMENTS
The Bolshevik Coup in Russia: A Moment of History Frozen in Time - The Study of Empress Dowager Marie Feodorovna (1847-1928), Dagmar of Denmark, in the Aftermath of the Revolution This evocative photograph, titled "The Bolshevik Coup in Russia; The study of the Empress Dowager, Marie Feodorovna; in the wall, a shell hole," captures a poignant moment in history. Taken in 1917, the image depicts the Empress Dowager Marie Feodorovna, the consort of the late Emperor Alexander III of Russia, in a damaged interior, likely in Leningrad, USSR, during the aftermath of the Bolshevik Coup. Marie Feodorovna, born Princess Dagmar of Denmark, was the mother of the last Russian Emperor, Nicholas II. The photograph shows her sitting at a damaged wooden table, her face etched with concern and determination, as she studies a book or document. The room is filled with the remnants of a bygone era: bullet holes in the wall, damaged furniture, and a shattered mess. The backdrop of this scene is the tumultuous year of 1917, when the Russian monarchy was overthrown, and the Bolsheviks, led by Vladimir Lenin, seized power. The photograph serves as a stark reminder of the chaos and destruction that accompanied the revolution. Emperor Alexander III, who ruled from 1881 to 1894, was succeeded by his son Nicholas II, who was in power at the time of the Bolshevik Coup. The photograph offers a glimpse into the personal lives of the Romanovs during this turbulent period, providing a poignant and historical record of a time long past.
