On the photograph: Nicolas II and Alexandra Feodorovna, Tsarskoe Selo, summer 1917
[...] In June and July 1917,  Alexandra Feodorovna made several more appearances, all recorded in her husband’s diary and not a word in hers – on the 2nd of June: ‘In the afternoon, Alix was present during our working at yesterday's place’;  on the 14th of June: ‘In the morning I walked with all the children in the park. The weather was great. At 12 o'clock went to the prayer service. In the afternoon, Alix came out with us’; On the 21st of June: ‘During the working in the park, Alix was present in her chair’; and finally, the 23rd of July: ‘During the day we worked on a narrow path, cut down and sawed two spruce trees. Alix was sitting there in the forest.’
From the above it appears that the activities of Nicolas II and others outside did not interest Alexandra Feodorovna much. At least, she did not wish to be directly associated with them. It seems that her intentional withdrawal manifested the dislike and disagreement with her changed status, - she was not the wife of the Emperor anymore, but the wife of the abdicated Emperor who was under home arrest and to add to this was doing the activities of a simple ‘peasant’. Hence, her resistance. [...] - Seraphima Bogomolova

The AI gave me what I have been looking for in pictures and more pictures of the real thing. Although these images need a lot of polishing, I can say that I am more than satisfied with this first approach to AI.
While I am also aware that many artists would do a great job equally or more impressive, especially on the side that only a human has been able to convey in art so far.
Speaking of real artists, some time ago I started a project that has Nicolas and Alejandra as part of the main cast! and having my own version of these characters, why not redo some of these drawings and adapt them to my version of these characters?

Nicolas Delort
Ozymandias. 2023
"I met a traveller from an antique land Who said: Two vast and trunkless legs of stone Stand in the desert . . . Near them, on the sand, Half sunk, a shattered visage lies, whose frown, And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command, Tell that its sculptor well those passions read Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things, The hand that mocked them, and the heart that fed: And on the pedestal these words appear: 'My name is Ozymandias, king of kings: Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!' Nothing beside remains. Round the decay Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare The lone and level sands stretch far away." P. B. Shelley, 1817
