On Saturday 12th November the Grand Duchess Elizabeth Romanov Society will hold an exhibition dedicated to the Members of the Russian Imperial House and their contribution to the alleviation of suffering in the First World War.
This is a continuation of the two very successful events and concerts held at the Russian Cultural Centre in Kensington in September as well as the display in the old Russian Embassy chapel in Welbeck Street during Patriarch Kirill’s recent visit.
The evening will include talks and the showing of a new film about the life and death of Prince Oleg Konstantinovich Romanov – the only Romanov to have been killed in battle in WWI.
You will have the opportunity to examine rare photos and postcards covering the nursing and other charitable activities of the two Empresses, Grand Duchess Elizabeth and the other Grand Duchesses during the War.
Snacks and drinks will be available.
No entry fee but suggested contribution towards the costs £10
