Elizabeth | The Heart of a Saint

As Mother Superior, Grand Duchess Elisabeth led an ascetic life. She fasted rigorously and existed only on a diet of milk, eggs and vegetables, and bread. She arose at midnight to pray in her chapel or to visit the hospital ward, frequently staying at the bedside of a patient in pain or fear, doing everything she could to soothe their anguish. · · ─────── ·•· ─────── · · This video is produced as part of the project for the book "The Romanov Royal Martyrs”, which is an impressive 512-page book, featuring nearly 200 black & white photographs, and a 56-page photo insert of more than 80 high-quality images, colorized by the acclaimed Russian artist Olga Shirnina (Klimbim) and appearing here in print for the first time. · · ─────── ·•· ─────── · · 📖 EXPLORE the book: http://romanovs.eu/en-book 🌎 ORDER the book: http://romanovs.eu/online-store 🎵 THEME SONG:    • July Winter Tears | Original Soundtrack | ...   · · ─────── ·•· ─────── · · Follow us on: ▶ YOUTUBE: https://goo.gl/9c8ZEx ▶ FACEBOOK:   / romanovroyalmartyrs   ▶ INSTAGRAM:   / romanov_royal_martyrs
