The present edition shows the living quarters of Emperor Nicholas II and Empress Alexandra Feodorovna in the Winter Palace. In the first years after the October Revolution, the interior design of the apartment was almost totally destroyed.

The book acquaints the reader with different sources, both pictorial and documentary, that help to get the impression of the architectural and decorative peculiarities of the rooms. The author also gives an answer to the question why Nicholas II preferred to call these rooms ‘an apartment’. A remarkable edition with a large number of illustrations recreates a most fragile historical reality – an everyday family life of the last Russian Emperor.
