This listing is exceptionally special. The doll, direct or remote bind serves as the vessel for Empress Alexandra Feodorovna, also referred to as Alix of Hesse. She was the Empress Consort of Emperor Nicholas II of Russia from their marriage on November 26, 1894, until his forced abdication on March 15, 1917. She was born Princess Alix of Hesse and by Rhine. Her parents were Louis IV, Grand Duke of Hesse, and Rhine and Princess Alice of the United Kingdom (a daughter of Queen Victoria of the United Kingdom, who called her Alicky) who called her “Sunny” due to her cheerful personality. Princess Alice died when Alix was only six. Queen Victoria stepped in and served as a surrogate mother to her. Queen Victoria said, “While I love Alicky, till she is married, will be more than ever my own child."

She was known for her great beauty, big and lustrous blue-grey eyes, and tall and slender frame. Her natural shyness was often mistaken as haughtiness, and she was generous to her friends and tried to help others. She was intellectual and well-read. She enjoyed music, played the banjo, and sang duets for hours with Queen Victoria's Lady in Waiting Minnie Cochrane. She relished playing the piano with her daughter Olga, who inherited her musical talent.

Upon entering the Russian Orthodox Church and Nicholas II becoming Tsar, his bride, Alix, was given the name and title Empress Consort Grand Duchess Alexandra Feodorovna. She and her immediate family were all killed while in Bolshevik captivity in 1918, during the Russian Revolution. In 2000 the Russian Orthodox Church canonized her as Saint Alexandra the Passion Bearer.

World War I erupted and the Imperial Family was sent to Siberia. On July 17, 1918, Empress Alexandra, King Nicholas II (the last King of Russia), and their children were assassinated at the order of Vladimir Lenin.

In 2000, Alexandra was canonized as a saint and passion bearer by the Russian Orthodox Church.

So much can be said about this exceptional woman and her fascinating life. The above is only a summary.

The vessel is a vintage white angel porcelain figurine with feathers.  It is lightly used but is in like-new condition.  If a direct or remote bind is chosen any shipping charge will be refunded.

Many blessings!
