The murder of the Romanov family, the imperial family of Russia, took place on the night of 16–17 July 1918 in Yekaterinburg. Following the February Revolution, the Romanov family and their servants had been imprisoned in the Alexander Palace near Saint Petersburg before being moved to Tobolsk in Siberia in the aftermath of the October Revolution. They were shot and bayoneted to death by Bolshevik revolutionaries under Yakov Yurovsky on the orders of the Ural Regional Soviet in Ipatiev House. This 1913 photograph of the family depicts the imperial couple and their five children: from left to right, Grand Duchess Olga, Grand Duchess Maria, Emperor Nicholas II, Empress Alexandra Feodorovna, Grand Duchess Anastasia, Tsesarevich Alexei, and Grand Duchess Tatiana.Photograph credit: Levitsky Studio; restored by Wolcott and Yann Forget
