The photo album depicts the Visit of his Imperial Majesty to the Headquarters of the Commander-in Chief, dating from 21-23 September 1914. The album includes 70 photographs, both candids and posed shots. Tsar Nicholas II actually only appears in a few, as does Grand Duke Nikolaĭ Nikolaevich; more of the photographs are of scenes and soldiers, apparently around the army headquarters.
