Archivo: Brian Johnson and Mikhail Alexandrovich

Descripción: Photo of Great Duke Mikhail Alexandrovich Romanoff (left) and his secretary and personal friend Nikolay Nikolaevich Johnson, in April 1918 in Perm, Russia, where both were imprisoned by the Soviet Government. Mikhail Alexandrovich has a beard, as he made an oath not to shave till he would be free again.Last known photograph of Mikhail Alexandrovich Romanov, in Perm, April 1918. He is standing with Pyotr Ludvigovich Znamerovsky, who is often misidentified as Nicholas Johnson. Johnson was much younger and was English. SOURCE: Likely the last known photo of Michael, taken in Perm in April 1918. With him is Pyotr Ludvigovich Znamerovsky, who has often been misidentified here as Nicholas Johnson. At least two copies of this photo exist: one at the State Archives of Russian Federation (GARF, f. P9440, op. 1, d. 1, l. 1991), which presumably belonged to Znamerovsky, as his landlady found it in his apartment after his arrest. The other copy is in the private collection of the Pauline Gray Estate. — Azar, Helen, and Nicholas B.A. Nicholson.
