Grand Duchess Xenia Alexandrovna was the eldest daughter of Emperor Alexander III and Empress Maria Feodorovna and the sister of Emperor Nicholas II. In 1894, she married her cousin, Grand Duke Alexander Mikhailovich of Russia, with whom she had seven children. Following the revolution, Grand Duchess Xenia Alexandrovna fled Russia, eventually settling in the United Kingdom.

We are grateful to Dr Valentin Skurlov for his assistance with the research of the present lot.
