4.0 out of 5 stars A lovely book but an odd hybrid, May 16, 2001
By A Customer
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Jewel Album of Tsar Nicholas II: A Collection of Private Photographs of the Russian Imperial Family (Hardcover)
I love this book--the presentation is classy with the slipjacket, the size and paper choice are perfect, and just when I thought I had seen every photograph of Nicholas II's family along comes the Jewel Album! However, that's where the hybrid part comes in--watercolors of men's jewelry is bookended by lovely, mostly unseen photos of Nicholas' family. I would rather have had one book on the jewelry of the whole Imperial family and another separate book on Princess Irene's extrodinary photos. Still, I enjoy this book very much--it's nice to still be able to find new information on Nicholas and Alexandra even in the 21st century.

4.0 out of 5 stars interesting book for Romanovphiles, August 14, 2002
By 
Daniel Scott Cooter (Knoxville, TN United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Jewel Album of Tsar Nicholas II: A Collection of Private Photographs of the Russian Imperial Family (Hardcover)
A beautifully produced slipcovered volume of Nicholas's own watercolored renderings of his personal jewelry, of which he apparantly had a lot of (I guess that's a necessity of being tsar-emperor). The real treat, however, are the family photographs, many of which are previously unpublished. If your a serious Nicholas and Alexandra collector, this is a must have.

4.0 out of 5 stars Lots of candid pictures..., February 25, 2000
By 
This review is from: The Jewel Album of Tsar Nicholas II: A Collection of Private Photographs of the Russian Imperial Family (Hardcover)
This book is filled with pictures you won't see elsewhere. Many charming candids and lots of informal shots, which means that a good number aren't of optimal photographic quality (too dark, &c.). Some caption misidentifications, but otherwise wonderful.
