Grand Duchess Alexandra Nikolaevna was the fourth child of Nicholas I and Alexandra Feodorovna and the first wife of Prince Frederick William of Hesse-Kassel. She was born in Tsarskoye Selo in 1825 and was affectionally known as “Adini”. Prince Frederick and Adini fell in love during his visit to St Petersburg in winter of 1843 and their engagement was announced on 28 June 1843. Unfortunately, Adini became ill with tuberculosis before her wedding and passed away shortly afterwards never having left Russia for her new home. At the insistence of the Emperor Nicholas I and the Empress Alexandra Feodorovna, the Dowry, which had already been shipped to Grand Duchy of Hesse, remained there at the disposal of the Prince.

A situation similar to that of the topographical designs occurred with the plates to be decorated with costumes. The original commission specified Russian costumes, but unfortunately the Manufactory did not have any originals to copy and “none could be acquired by purchase.” So the decision was made to use other materials for copying, including illustrations from popular magazines. This announcement of the absence of the views of St. Petersburg and traditional costumes in the Manufactory is not surprising. Since the beginning of the 19th century, both have been among the most popular motifs for porcelain painting and the templates for them were in great demand.
