List of Illustrations
1. Count Sergei Sheremetev and his younger half brother, Count Alexander, from the 1870s. The uniform notwithstanding, Sergei’s interests ran toward Russian history and culture, while Alexander’s passions were music and firefighting. (Author’s collection)
2. The family of Count Sergei and Countess Yekaterina Sheremetev, the Fountain House, St. Petersburg, early 1880s. Front row, left to right: Pavel, Boris, Countess Yekaterina, Maria, a governess, Sergei. Back row, left to right: Dmitry, Count Sergei, Anna Sheremetev (Count Sergei’s cousin), Pyotr, Anna. (Author’s collection)
3. Alexander Saburov, his wife, Anna, and their children Boris and Xenia, ca. 1900. Musical, deeply religious, and possessed of the kind of beauty that, according to one contemporary, moved men to spill blood and compose love songs, Anna was to know terrible loss: her husband was executed and her two sons perished in the gulag. (Author’s collection)
4. The younger of the two Sheremetev girls, Maria was her father’s favorite. She is shown here in 1899, a year before her marriage to Count Alexander Gudovich. (Author’s collection)
5. Count Pavel Sheremetev in seventeenth-century dress for the Ball of 1903. Historian, artist, and conflicted monarchist, Pavel was his father’s spiritual heir and the only son to remain in Russia. (Author’s collection)
6.

8. Princess Yekaterina Dmitrievna Golitsyn, the daughter of Prince Dmitry Golitsyn, imperial master of the hunt, in the mid-1890s. In 1910, while a maid of honor to the imperial court, she married Count Alexander Sheremetev’s son Georgy. Separated from each other during much of the civil war, they escaped southern Russia for Europe with their two young children and lived out their lives in exile.

He later returned to political life, serving several terms as the city’s mayor and earning praise as “the bright Champion of honor and truth” for his liberal agenda and urban improvements. (Courtesy of Alexandre Galitzine)
