Lost to the Revolution
- 1981 ----- color ----- 28 min ----- 16mm
- Presents a look at the final years of Imperial Russia, through the legacy of Peter Carl Fabergé, the renowned jeweler who created many fabulous designs for the Romanovs during the reigns of Tsar Alexander III and Tsar Nicholas II. The history of some of Fabergé's greatest creations is paralleled with a history of the ominous upheavals which preceded the Russian Revolution, and the loss of a complex, intricate society to the new order. The emphasis here is on the Romanov family, their close ties and the beautiful gifts which they exchanged; symbols of their deep familial love created for them by the genius of Fabergé.
