This picture taken in 1910 shows Nicholas II and Tsarina Alexandra on board the yacht Standart

That photo of Alexandra is "famous" of sorts because it's one of the few where she's actually seen smiling.
   
If only Tsarina Alexandra and Nicholas II had been in St. Petersburg more often at royal society functions. If only she could have smiled more like this.
