Portrait of Tsarevich Alexei Nikolaevich
I really wanted to show people their native, still quite recent history through a small, fragile and vulnerable boy from hemophilia, and not through his adult parents. I wanted the question to be“ Why? ”After all, it is clear that the Tsarevich is standing on the bank of The Alexander Palace, where his father was born and lived for the last 13 years with his family. People should have asked: “Why does this boy, in a full uniform, standing against the background of the air columns of the beautiful palace, have such tension throughout his body, so silent, reducing spasm the spirit of grief and had to be the answer: "Because this is my house, from which 1 August 1917 I go with my family to Siberia forever."
