is associated with years of their youth, the beginning of family life, and the birth of children. They lovingly furnished this house and joyfully returned to it. It is also noteworthy that both monarchs lived in Anichkov Palace as tsesarevichs, before the avalanche of monarchical affairs and concerns fell upon them. In this residence, the monarchs were shaped not only as future statesmen but also as individuals, with all their strengths and weaknesses. The traces of their youthful passions have left a significant mark in the history of Russian culture.
