Marina PETROVNA ROMANOFF (1892–1981) Plate printed using the stencil technique with superb gold and palladium highlights, taken from one of the four plates in the book *La Princesse Nenekedjân: Légende Tartare de Crimée* (published in Paris in 1926). The original book contained drawings of extraordinary finesse. It was the subject of an extremely rare and limited art print run (approximately 120 copies by the publisher Honoré Champion), printed as a facsimile. The author, Princess Marina PETROVNA ROMANOFF of Russia (1906–1992), was the great-granddaughter of Tsar Nicholas I. She fled the Russian Revolution in 1919. The book *Princess Nenekedjân: A Crimean Tatar Legend” is an epic poem that recounts the fate of the magnificent Nenekedjân (Canike Hanım), daughter of the powerful Khan Tokhtamych of the Golden Horde, a great rival of Tamerlane in the late 14th century. These volumes are not ordinary children’s storybooks, but genuine collectible art books highly sought after by bibliophiles
