17. Tatiana Nikolaevna & Her Mother
Tsarina Alexandra’s favorite daughter was Duchess Tatiana Nikolaevna. Accounts of the mother-daughter pair were that they looked quite similar, like sisters more than anything. Amongst Tatiana’s sisters, who were all beautiful, she stood out the most. She was not only attractive but also kind-hearted. When the war broke out, she joined the Red Cross as a nurse, attending to soldiers with a natural and impressive skill.
