Catherine Ivanovna Nelidova was a graduate of the Smolny Institute for noblewomen and a member of Maria Fedorovna's entourage. Toward the middle of the 1780s, she became a favorite companion of Paul and was soon rumored to be his mistress, which is unlikely. Their close relationship did not initially disturb Maria Fedorovna, but eventually, platonic relations or not, jealousy did its work, and when the tensions of the young court became extreme, Nelidova modestly retired to Smolny. At length, however, Maria Fedorovna discovered in her a sympathetic and unaffected character and an essential ally in the struggle to reason with and to exert a constructive influence on the increasingly willful Paul. They thereupon became inseparable companions. [ x ]

And you’re willing to cut your heart out? Bind yourself to the Dutchman forever? No, mate. I’m free forever. Free to sail the seas beyond the edges of the map, free from death itself.

The philosophy of Captain Jack Sparrow.

Catherine the Great had a particular affection for Italian Greyhounds, and her favorite was “Zemira”. The little Iggie was named after the Beauty and the Beast opera heroine, Zemira. Zemira slept in Catherine’s room in a cradle line in pink silk and usually joined her for daily walks. When it died, Catherine did not leave her bedchamber for several days.

We took our daughter and traveled around Europe. We delighted in the kind of freedom we had never known before.
