This link is about the book plates used by the Romanovs for their books, but it also has other historical bookplate drawings for several other dynasties.
Enjoy House of Romanov And now I really got to leave, it's 12:50 AM and we have a giant snowstorm right outside that I'm debating to go out and photograph! Most of our state will be paralized in the morning due to snow and ice so everybody in my office plans to stay home. ![]() |

Catherine, born on July 25, 1915 was the second child and only daughter of Prince Ioann (Ivan) Konstantinovich of Russia and Princess Helen of Serbia. Her older brother, Vsevelod, died in 1973. Catherine married, in 1937, Ruggero, Marchese Farace di Villaforesta (1909-1970) They had three children, Nicoletta (widowed with two children, Eduardo [(married with a son, Federico] and Alexandra [married with a son, Santiago]) Fiametta (married, with two children from her first marriage Victor [married with a son, Matias] and Sebastian [married], and a son from a second marriage, Alessandro) and Marchese Giovanni (married with two children, Alessandro and Yann).
