Prince Nikita Alexandrovich: School Work and Educational Materials Circa 1913-1919 Comprising notebooks, and loose papers relating to geography and history, all in the Prince's hand. PROVENANCE: Prince Nikita Alexandrovich; Prince Alexander Nikitch Romanoff; Princess Maria Romanoff. Prince Nikita Alexandrovich was educated at home, and then, like his father before him, enrolled at the Naval Academy, where he studied the core curriculum. The offered lot contains a portion of work that he did as a cadet, including carefully drawn maps of parts of the Russian empire and foreign lands, and an interesting group of renderings of ships of the Russian fleet in silhouetted profile; these exercises were practiced so that at sea, any ship could be recognized from its outline alone.
