Grand Duchess Tatiana working (moving lumps of sod on a stretcher with the aid of a soldier) outside Alexander Palace, during internment at Tsarskoe-Selo, Russia, 1917. Grand Duchess Tatiana Nikolaevna of Russia (Tatiana Nikolaevna Romanova) (June 11, 1897 - July 17, 1918) was the second daughter of Tsar Nicholas II, the last monarch of Russia, and of Tsarina Alexandra. She was better known than her three sisters during her lifetime and headed Red Cross committees during World War I. Like her older sister Grand Duchess Olga Nikolaevna of Russia, she nursed wounded soldiers in a military hospital from 1914 to 1917, until the family was arrested following the first Russian Revolution of 1917. Her murder by revolutionaries resulted in her being named as a passion bearer by the Russian Orthodox Church.
