Very good example of this souvenir album published on the eve of the coronation in a limited edition, to be distributed among the nobility close to the Imperial family.
Along with a title page, the publisher's portfolio contains a full set of ten chromolithographs depicting Tsar Nicholas II in the uniforms of ten regiments which were under his direct command.
The lithographs have been executed after paintings by Hugo Karlovich Backmanson (1860–1953), a Finnish born artist and painter of battle-pieces, who from 1884 served as an officer in the Izmailovskiy regiment. Rare when complete.
Oblong folio (39.3 x 52.8 cm); chromolithographed title page & 10 chromolithographed plates, slight wear to edges of plates, original blue cloth portfolio with title stamped in silver on front cover, folds a little worm, covers slightly stained, without the original ties, a good copy.
