This photo gallery was created as part of the
scientific work of the two co-authors: Raoul Perrot, Honorary Professor of
Anatomical Anthropology, Doctor of Science, Doctor of Human Biology. Honorary
expert in forensic anthropology at the Court of Appeal of Lyon. Specialist in
Similarity Biometrics, and the great-granddaughter of Grand Duchess Anastasia
Nikolaevna Romanova, Grand Duchess Alisa Vladimirovna, of the Holstein- Gottorp
Romanov Dynasty.
Raoul Perrot has achieved what other scholars of the history of our Holstein-Gottorp-Romanov
dynasty have not been able to do. Indeed, with the help of photographs from my
family archives, he managed to identify Grand Duchess Anastasia Nikolaevna and
confirm the fact of her rescue. The chosen age limit of seventeen years for the
Emperor’s youngest daughter, Grand Duchess Anastasia Nikolaevna Romanova, was
determined by the tragic events in the life of Imperial Russia and the ruin of
the family nest of our imperial ancestors. Photos of my great-grandmother,
Grand Duchess Anastasia Nikolaevna Romanova, before the age of seventeen, are
known and publicly available in various news sources around the world. In
contrast, the photographs of my great-grandmother, after the age of seventeen,
presented in this study, are unique and have never been exhibited to the
public.
With the help of photographs available in the public domain and in the
personal archives of the direct heirs of the Holstein-Gottorp Romanov dynasty,
Raoul Perrot Honorary Professor of Anatomical Anthropology, Doctor of Science,
Doctor of Human Biology. Honorary expert in forensic anthropology at the Court
of Appeal of Lyon. Specialist in similarity biometrics, enthusiastically
accepted the challenge of conducting a study of the photographs of my
great-grandmother Anastasia Nikolaevna Romanova before and after her
seventeenth birthday with the aim of drawing a definitive conclusion about the
fate of Grand Duchess Anastasia Nikolaevna Romanova using the scientific method
of similarity biometrics of which he is the specialist.
In this way, he was able to provide an inescapable answer to the question
posed for more than a century by the many scientists engaged in research into
the fate of the imperial family after the revolutionary coup d'état in Russia
in 1917–1918. These researchers have all been wrong in their conclusions,
missing the only truth about the real fate of the family of Emperor Nikolai II
Alexandrovich, namely the survival of some of its members, especially Anastasia

Conclusion (Raoul
Perrot)
This year 2024 marks the 106th
anniversary of the dramatic events of 1918, which officially recorded terrorist
actions against the family of Emperor Nicholas II in Russia. The information
about what is happening in the Ipatiev house in Yekaterinburg, Russia, which is
presented through various means as the truth about the royal family of
Holstein-Gottorp Romanov, although none of them has reliable information about
the situation that developed in Yekaterinburg in 1918, is full of speculations
and false theories. Including information about Tsar Nicholas II and Tsarina
Alexandra Feodorovna's youngest daughter, Anastasia, who became a real-life
character with fictional plots in novels and movies. Her fame has led to many
hypotheses about her fate: she lived or died (1), not to mention the appearance
of fake Anastasias!
The work presented today, which provides irrefutable
scientific proof of Anastasia's survival, is the result of a chance meeting
between Alice Vladi (Anastasia's great-great-granddaughter) and the author of
these lines!
Alice, for a long time, looked
for ways to confirm the fact of the salvation of her great-grandmother, the
Grand Duchess, Anastasia Nikolaevna Romanova. After asking a well-known human
rights lawyer for help in finding the right specialist, she received a
referral to ask me for help as a recognized specialist in similarity
biometrics, with the aim of being able to determine and confithe identity of Alice's great-grandmother, Anastasia
Romanova. Alice, knowing my name, scoured the internet and quickly found the
website of the Anatomic Anthropology Laboratory of Lyon (France) allowing her
to learn about some of my work: those relating to the comparison de Photographs
of faces using a methodology originally developed for the identification of
people who have committed armed robberies. This methodology was then
extended to any comparison of people! So Alice contacted me thinking (hoping)
that the similarity biometric would help her demonstrate what she had known for
a long time, namely that her great-great-grandmother had not died in 1918!!
His request surprised me, especially since the proposed research curiously
created an unexpected emotional link with my 1950s, when, as a young man, on
holiday in the south of France (Le Brusc-sur-Mer/Var), I had the great honor of
being received as a friend by Princess Marina Petrovna Romanovna (niece of the
Tsar) and her husband, Prince Alexander Golitsyn!
The success of our joint work, in
addition to the scientific part, is based on the important family iconographic
collection assembled with patience and love by Alisa Vladi! These documents,
the authenticity of which cannot be disputed, present a gallery of portraits
that visually present a very similar facial morphology (2), which allows us to
see that these people are all linked by a common genetics! It should be noted
that Alice's DNA tests confirm this relationship, corresponding to the degree
of kinship.
As for the article itself, we had
to make a choice of photographs and in the end, for this comparative review, we
chose 5 faces of Anastasia: 7 years old, 9 years old - 20 years old, 60 years
old - 70 years old. Also attached are photos of Grand Duchess Anastasia
Nikolaevna Romanova at the age of 50 and 80! We refer the reader to the
corresponding text.
(1)For example, the current
Wikipedia section dedicated to Anastasia [Anastasia Nikolaïevna de Russie — Wikipédia (wikipedia.org] considers her to be deceased :
(2)It should be noted that taking facial morphology into
account in the comparison of two faces can (although subjective) provide
significant additional information to morphometrics, the basis of the biometric
similarity.
