Descendants of yusupes. Grand Prince Felix Yusupov: Memoirs, Biography, Personal Life

What is your mother, that of the same hot loved ones will only be alive? Such is the curse of the kind. Babushkina fairy tales? Babushkina, yes not a fairy tale ...

Enchanted by death

The old princess of Zinaida Ivanovna Yusupova firmly decided from a young nail to push his granddaughters - Tatiana and his favorite Zinechka, named after her honor, the fact that herself learned too late. Their race is cursed, and this fact is not changed - everything happened for too long, while Ivan the Terrible. The founder of the genus Yusupova was Abdul-Murza, the son of the fear of Russia Khan's Great Nogai Horde - Yusuf. In one black for his descendants, he suddenly accepted and went to the service to the Russian autocrat, for which he was cursed in his homeland as a traitor forever. Family legend with frightening mathematical accuracy reading: from all born in one generation of Yusupovy live to live up to twenty-six years there will be only one child and will continue up to the complete disappearance of the genus from the face of the Earth.

When young Zinich Naryshkin married Boris Yusupov, no one was bothering to tell her the terrible truth about the family in which she enters. From the side of Yusupov, everything looked as it should not be better: the second ongencies and wealth after the emperor of All Russia. Better not to find a party. Zinaida was quite happy in marriage, her son gave birth, then a beautiful daughter (plus two in favor of Yusupovy), and then the Nogai curse entered into its strength: the baby suddenly died (minus one). The servants were whispering in the corners, and the legend reached, finally, to the ears of Princess. Being the character of a solid and decisive, Zinaida declared her husband that "give birth to the dead" is not going to "give birth, and if he didn't go down," let the courtyard girls "," she will not object. So lived in love and harmony until the death of Yusupov.

The widow had not yet been forty, but the family and children were no longer part of her plans, she was good and owned by indispensable wealth, who gave her freedom of action, unheard of that era. Soon, Yusupov called no otherwise as A la Balzac, for a whole string of dizzying. It seemed that she wondered the goal to die from clinsy, and not from the hated generic curse. The desire of princess to deceive death over the years turned into mania. Neglecting the opinion of the Supreme Society, she bought her young lover - a disjoint, a fighter with this society - from prison, impregnable and deadly crude Schlisselburg fortress, in fact, saved him from slow death in imprisonment. And when he still died, ordered to glorify his body to keep him forever in the secret room next to his extermination.

In old age, the grandmother invented another trick, in order to escape from the strike of an ancient curse: he married the first oncoming Frenchman, left Russia and carelessly lived the rest of the days is no longer Yusupova, but Madame de Chavo-de Serr. Truly in Russian: I'm not me, and the hut is not mine!

Three minus two

The eldest in the genus Yusupov could have won with death, but her only son was to live in much greater fear - Nikolai. However, as a highly educated person, Vice-Director of St. Petersburg public Library, the writer and violinist, he did not believe in any of the prophecy covered with centuries-old dust. His three children (plus three) - Zinaida, Tatiana and Boris brought up with people with secular, prudent and crystal clear soul. There was no bills with ancient dark forces in their lives ...

First, a little Born died from Scarlacin - the only heir to the yuspekova on the men's line (minus one).

Then during the equestrian walk hooked the eldest daughter Zinaida. First, the wound seemed empty, but the next day began, and Botkin himself diagnosed - blood infection. The then medicine was unable to help the young, blooming girl, unfortunate fell into a whom. Desperate Yusupov, threw off all his principles and called for the bed of the dying daughter of the priest John Kronstadsky, known for his wonderful healing, hopelessly sick. Prayer's strength, the elder returned Zinaida to life.

Thus, the commander of her sister on the right death - soon Tatiana burned down from Tifa. She was 22 years old. Curse of the genus Yusupov worked as a well-established mechanism - to overcome the 26-year-old frontier was destined to be only one offspring. Believe or believe - no values.

Love is more precious than gold

Zinaida became the only heir of factories, manufactory and profitable homes in each Russian large city, mines, villages, places, estates, forests and lands in every Russian province, palaces, furnished queen Mary Antoinette and Madame de Pompadur, and the collections of jewels, among whom the pearl of Pelegrin, who belonged to the whole Philip II and considered the main decoration of the Spanish crown. But what do all these fabulous wealth mean before the death face? Dust and Tlen! And grandmother, and the father insisted on the speedy marriage of the remaining chad, were afraid to leave this light, without waiting for confirmation of the continuation of the kind - grandchildren. The family had to grow, and not crying to strive for zero.

In the grooms there was no lack. Not only is Zinaida was the richest bride in Russia, she was divinely beautiful. In her husband, she was referred to her relative of the emperor, a challenger on the throne of Bulgaria. However, the girl looked not in the eyes of the Bulgarian prince, and on top of his shoulder, her true narrowed, a modest officer Felix Elston, one of the numerous suite of the foreign fiance. The next day he came alone and made her an offer of his hand and hearts. Yusupov daughter did not re-read: title, wealth, tie, beauty, education, mind, kindness - everything was and so it was from his daughter, only love was required from her spouse (put the sign of equality - children). The Union of Two Lovers Hearts was consecrated by the mystery of the wedding and brought two children, moreover - sons. The damned seed of Khan Yusuf for the first time in many generations gained hope to strengthen on Earth Russian.

Two of Larts.

In fact, Zinaida Nikolaevna Nikolaevna gave birth to four children, two died in infancy, but about this bloody Dani Nogai in the family preferred to be silent. They rejoiced to the two sons, the two most precious stones in the family treasury, two hopes of the genus Yusupov. Senior, Nikolay, an externally poured father, in life hobbies was a copy of the mother and grandfather - Muzitsy, painted, wrote the stories, played in the theater, while brilliantly defended the lawyer's diploma. Extremely gifted young man was not easy to find a decent pair, yes love herself overall. And destroyed. Maria Heiden was already "completely given" and was not going to disturb the oath of loyalty, even for the sibling of the Yusupov himself. Everyone can second people after the king, but not everyone to marry love. The husband of Mary in the long explanation on this occasion was not stupid, called Nicholas on a duel and did not miss. Mathematics - Cruel Science: Senior Son Zinaida Yusupova in six months should have been fulfilled twenty-six years.

The Mother of Aki Lioness, distraught from grief, clung to the younger son of Felix, not going to a step, it is often intimidating and calling her by Nikolya, although the brothers are absolutely not like. Felix got the angelic appearance of the mother, but in society he was still very young received a reputation as an angel of the fallen. Neither the art nor science nor a military affair did not interest him. Why learn, and even more so you work, if you are almost a fabulous prince from birth, you belong to you, and not today, will the ghost of the greatness of Yusuf come for you? You need to use every day of life released for pleasure.

Not the soul of Mother - Zinaida Nikolaevna, known for the whole of Russia with his kindness, mercy, charitable affairs, prevailed in it, and the blood of the grandmother Zinaida Ivanovna Burlila. The list of his love victories was truly Donzhuan. However, to move the mother who demanded to stop the couments and marry, did not dare. At the beginning of the 20th century in Russian state There were two recognized beauties: his mother and Irina Aleksandrovna Romanova. The choice is obvious, all the more Irina was the close relative of the reign dynasty. On both sides of the newlyweds, the boy was waited, but, alas, daughter was born, after which Felix did not appear in the married bedroom. What to produce children who are inevitably waiting for death? And perhaps, Yusupov Jr. only covered with ancient legend his too modern inclinations. They rummed that old man Rasputin, in whose murder he accepted the most active participation, I came to the house of Yusupov, in order to pour Felix with his wife, learning about the homosexual relationships of her husband. Felix, who remained the only descendant of Yusuf, considered that he was allowed to adultery, perversion, murder.

After the Revolution, the Yusupov family managed to emigrate not with empty hands. Of course, palaces, plants and arable land with themselves in France will not take away, but his mother's family jewels retained, and the real estate abroad had. Felix slipped everything. His spouse, daughter and, finally, he was buried in the grave of his mother, Zinaida - no money for some places was found. The sustainable death of Brother Nikolay gave him a chance to life and continue the kind, but the Nogai curse was easily reduced to the scores with him: if a man is weak, he is a complete zero in the fight against ancient forces.

Prince Felix Yusupov forever entered the story primarily as the killer Rasputin. Dramatic events of 1916, which occurred in the Yusupov Palace on the sink, were not yet fused. The reliable image of Felix Yusupov in the cinema embodied Vladimir Koshevoy in the film "Conspiracy" (2007) and in the serial of the First Channel "Grigory R." (year 2014). This time the actor held a tour of the updated Yusupovsky Palace, spoke about his significant meeting with the prince of Ksenia Nikolaevna, the granddaughter of Felix Yusupov, who recently came to St. Petersburg, and shared with Hello! Some of her memories.

Felix Yusupov, 1916Vladimir Koshevoy in the Yusupov Palace. The actor was playing Prince Yusupova more than once, and now plans to embody this image on the stage of the Palace Home TheaterKsenia Nikolaevna was born in 1942 in Rome. Only memories remained about the fabulous state of the family by that time. But the grandfather and grandmother were alive, whose stories were returned to Ksenia during the time when Yusupov owned the palaces in St. Petersburg and Moscow. In 1965, Ksenia married a Greek entrepreneur and received Sphiri last name. Then she gave birth to her daughter Tatyana, then the granddaughters appeared. Nothing violated the dimensional life in Athens, but Ksenia wanted to visit Petersburg.

Princess first turned out to be in Russia not so long ago. It was she who took blood to identify the royal remains, because the maiden name of her grandmother Irina Yusupova - Romanova, she is Nicholas II niece. Ksenia came to St. Petersburg to the burial ceremony of the royal family.

It was an amazing event, "said Ksenia Nikolaevna then. - We, descendants of old Russian aristocrats, went beyond the royal cages along the streets of St. Petersburg, which I consider the most beautiful city On the ground, and felt like a part of the Motherland.

Return was furnished very solemnly: the presentation of the Russian passport and even a meeting with Vladimir Putin. Ksenia, of course, dreams of come home more often. But, if neither paradoxically, Xenia Yusupova-Sphiri simply nowhere to stop: the family is not as rich in order to afford the city's hotels.

This time, she arrived at the invitation of the director of the Yusupovsky Palace, who wanted to demonstrate the updated interiors and discuss the preparing production "Felix. Return" based on Memoirov Yusupov. The performance will go in the new theater season on the scene of the home theater of the palace.

The museum administration has always supported a warm relationship with the descendants of Prince Yusupov. Ksenia Nikolaevna arrived at the invitation of the director of the Yusupovsky Palace of Nina Vasilievna Kukruzova (in the photo)After examining the halls, Ksenia Nikolaevna defended the two-hour service in the house of the cover of the Most Holy Virgin in the Yusupov Palace. Back in 2005, when work began on the revival of the Church, no detail of the interior was reminded that the temple was once there. From happiness and gratitude to Ksenia Yusupova cried, because her grandfather was baptized here - Felix Yusupova. Our conversation was held in a renovated Moorish living room. The princess threw off his shoes, climbed with his legs on the chair and lit. I was pleased with pleasure and plunged into memories ...

Vladimir Koshevoy and granddaughter Felix Yusupova Ksenia NikolaevnaYouth

I was 16, when we began to talk closely with my grandfather, "the princess told. - And often spent time only together. He knew how to listen. He did not talk about Russia, we only talked about life, talked about what we had concerned. I do not remember the details. I remember his entirely - posture, voice ... He opened the world for me. And called "Little", and could always guess who from the family comes along the corridor. Oh, who is there? Small ... We understood each other well, felt. We walked a lot, went to restaurants, cinema, theater. Especially loved comedy. Many laughed. He wanted more joy than experiences from dramatic performances. Sang grandfather is not good, but nice. Under the guitar, ballads. As for the music, Albinoni always sounded in the house. I and granddaughters have a plate of the Venetian composer, when we put it, remember the grandfather.

Holidays

The most important holidays in the family are birthdays. What could be powntly members Our family? We ourselves. One day when I was small, solved what to give. We had very little money. Thought: arrange a holiday or buy a gift? And grandfather decided: shoes. Said: "I want to be the first man who will give you shoes." I remember they were fashionable and white. Here is such a beauty action. "

Character

He was very angry when his requests were not performed. Did not love to postpone on tomorrow. Required to fulfill this minute. If Grandma, Irina Yusupova from the genus Romanov, was pessimist, he was always configured to the best - optimist. Yes, let it - not as we would like, but tomorrow there will be a new day. Everything will change. And the grandfather said: "Look at everything with good and love, and then the world is beautiful will be open to you."

Rasputin

I knew nothing about this story, and grandfather asked to read his memoirs. He said that he wrote everything in the book for me. He was sure that Rasputin bad person. I read the book 15 times and every time I hear his voice, he is not a writer - a narrator.

Movie

I never watch movies about my grandfather. Because everyone interests only Rasputin, and Felix's personality does not reveal. Grandfather was a very theater man, and he wanted to live brightly. I wanted to make pleasant impressions, but it remained inside a 16-year-old boy. And this was his beauty and immediacy. He had charisma, "Star" attractiveness, thanks to this he always turned out to be the epicenter of events.

Acts

"Grandfather was impractical, romantic and very kind. In last years He set a goal - to help dying. He found time for hiking to the hospital to seriously ill to cheer them up. This is not many know about it. And when seriously ill people were dying, from the hospital telephoned and asked: "Come, they are waiting for your conversations and leave light from life." You can help - help. Always. This is his youthful credo. Grandfather said: "Good, which we have, goes from the good that we give." He always repeated me. I still remember a few such things and I will cry ... And I do not want at all. "

Home Theater.

"Who just did not speak on this stage - Ferenz Leaf, Polina Viardo, Fyodor Chaliapin, Edward Director, Anna Pavlova! The productions gathered the famous guests, including members of the Imperial Family. I do not like when he is called" Palace "- for I am a house with my special aura. I would very much wanted to be a performance about the life of the grandfather. Yusupov can be called a "cultural core" of Russian emigration. Staging on his memoirs - return to the origins, the compound of Russia of modern and Russia is an emigrant, In this connection of generations. "

Ksenia Yusupova remained very pleased with the restoration in the palace and the work of the team. For goodbye, she heartily thanked for the warm welcome of her family and promised to visit the premiere of the play "Felix. Return"

The biography of this native family is rooted in the history of the Arab Caliphate: the origin was conducted from the legendary Abu Bakra, the testing and the nearest associate of the Prophet Mohammed. In the era of the fall of the Khalifa, the ancestors of the future Yusupov, in different years, Raaman, Antioch, Iraq, Persia and Egypt ruled in different years. In the history of the genus, there were legends on the close friendship of their ancestors with the great conqueror of Tamerlan: the Detaper of the Golden Horde, by organizing a state coup in 1400, managed to raise international authority and increase the political influence of the disintegitious Tatar-Mongolian state. The founder of the Yusupovian kind is considered to be the Bay of the Nogai Horde of Yusuf-Murza (Elder's Grand), a consistent opponent of the expansion of the Moscow kingdom in the middle of the XVI century. His daughter, Syumubik, played an important role in the tragic history of Taking Kazan by the troops of Ivan Grozny, after becoming the death of her husband, the Governor of the Khanate, the only woman who ever occupied such an important post. By the way, her real name was Syuk, and Syumubika, which means "Favorite Madam", it was nicknamed by the locals for special kindness and responsiveness to their subjects.

Yusupov's genus leads its origin from Khan Nogai Horde

The legends associated with the biography of this woman says: Once Ivan Grozny, having learned about the extraordinary beauty of Queen Syumubik, sent his woven to Kazan, however, she refused to obey the requirements of the Russian king. Then the angry Ivan decided to take the city by force - if Syumubik does not agree to marry him, he threatened to destroy Kazan. After taking the city by Russian troops, his government is not to give up the invaders, rushed from the tower, which today wears her name. According to other data, the Kazan government was captured and died together with her son to the Moscow kingdom - it was from this moment that the official pedigree of Yusupov began.

Modern Picture of Queen Syumubika

The next important stage in the formation of this noble surname was the transition to Orthodoxy, the circumstances of which played a tragic role in the history of the dynasty. The great-grandfather of Yusuf-Bay Abdul-Murza (Praded Nikolai Borisovich Yusupova) took in his estate in Romanov (now the city of Tutaev of the Yaroslavl region) of the Patriarch of Joachim and, not knowing the restrictions of Orthodox posts, fed him to Gusem, whom he accepted for fish. However, the mistake of the host revealed, and the angry church hierarch, returning to Moscow, complained to King Fyodor Alekseevich, and the monarch deprived Abdul Murza of all respects. In an effort to return his former position, he decided to be baptized by taking the name Dmitry and the surname in memory of the ancestor of Yusuf - Dmitry Seushevich Yusupov. So he earned the royal forgiveness, while having received the title of Prince and returning all his condition. However, the decision of Abdul Mirza was expensive to all his sign: one day he was sent to the prophecy that henceforth for the betrayal of his true faith in every generation there will be no more than one male heir, and if there are more of them, then no one will live longer than 26 years . This terrible curse pursued the genus yusup to the very end.

Dmitry Seushevich Yusupov

Yusupov has always been in the center of the most dramatic events in the history of the Russian Empire. The ill-fated Murza Abdul-Dmitry took part in the Streletsky uprising, when, together with his Tatar warrids, Aleksey Mikhailovich's juvenile heirs arrested. His son, Grigory Dmitrievich Yusupov, became famous in Petrov's campaigns, having passed along with the future emperor all military adversities under the azov, Narva and Forest. Already after Peter's death, His merit was noted by Catherine I, awarding the Order of St. Alexander Nevsky, and King Peter II helped Grigory Dmitrievich Vintage Moscow mansion in the Great Charitionevsky Lane, built him to the lieutenant colonels of the Preobrazhensky regiment and gave the position of senator, with estates in Yaroslavl, Voronezh, Nizhny Novgorod and Ryazan provinces.

The curse of Yusupov in legend was associated with baptism in Orthodoxy

His son, Boris Grigorievich, served under Anna Ivanovna to the position of a valid secret adviser, becoming the director of the first in Russia privileged educational institution For noble children - the landlock housing. By the way, Boris Grigorievich heard a big theater: in his career organized under his beginning, Alexander Petrovich Sumarokov, the founder of Russian drama and patron of the first domestic public scene began his career.

Boris Grigorievich Yusupov

Boris Grigorievich's son - Nikolai Borisovich - was famous Ekaterininskoye, one time was even in the status of the Favorite of the Empress (a long time in his office hung a picture with the image of His and Catherine in the image of naked Apollo and Venus). This representative of the Yusupov family was actively rewritten with the enlighteners by Voltaire and Didro, and Dramaturgors Boualersch even devoted him an enthusiastic poem. Thanks to the knowledge of origin and the brilliant court position, Nikolai Borisovich managed to personally meet all the main vertexes of European history of the turn of the XVIII-XIX centuries: with Joseph II, Friedrich Great, Louis XVI and Napoleon. The prince was a passionate fan of art and managed to gather in his luxury palace the artistic collection, which can be compared with masterpieces of the Louvre or Hermitage. When this honorable one got all the posts and rewards in the Russian Empire, especially for him established a special kind of award - a precious pearl eppoleu. Nikolai Borisovich also became famous for his extraordinary hunting to female: In the recently built Arkhangelsk district near Moscow (which contemporaries called "Russian Versailles") 300 portraits of women who could boast of acquaintance with a prominent one. Prince Peter Andreevich Vyazemsky, having visited Arkhangelsk, left such a characteristic of the owner of a luxurious estate: "On the street, his eternal holiday, in the house Eternal celebration of celebrations ... He had a light, deafening, fuckingly."

Nikolai Borisovich Yusupov

The memory of the childbirth did not fade away: the bride of the son of Nikolai Borisovich, Zinaida Ivanovna Yusupova, flatly refused to "give birth to the dead," by giving her husband a complete card-blanche - "Let the courtyard girls". In 1849, her spouse dies, and the 40-year-old widow turns into a real secular lioness, about the novels of which all St. Petersburg society gossipped. It came to the secret wedding with the captain of the French Guard Louis Sovo, who was henger for 20 years. Falling from the discontent of the imperial yard like Mesallians, Yusupova goes to Switzerland, where it acquires the title of Count Sovo and Marquis de Serr.

Zinaida Ivanovna Yusupov

The last representative of the female branch of the kind of yusupov - Zinaida Nikolaevna was one of the most beautiful women His time. The heir of a huge state was in his youth a very enviable bride, the hands of which even asked the heirs of the European ruling dynasties, but proud girl wanted to choose her husband in his own taste. As a result, her choice fell on Felix Felixovich Susharov-Elston, who immediately received the princely title and the position of commander of the Moscow Military District. The main activity, which occupied Zinaida Nikolaevna, was charity: under her patronage were numerous shelters, hospitals, gymnasiums, churches throughout the country.

The last descendant of Yusupov died in 1967 in Paris

During the Russian-Japanese war, Yusupova was the head of the military-sanitary train right on the front line, and sanatoriums and hospitals for the wounded were organized in the palaces and family estates. I knew Zinaida Nikolaevna from the youthful year the Grand Duke Alexander Mikhailovich wrote: "A woman of rare beauty and deep spiritual culture, she courageously tolerated his huge state, sacrificing millions on charity affairs and trying to relieve human need." Seriously overshadowed the life of the last Yusupovy death of their eldest son, Nikolai: He died for a duel in 1908, competing with the Arvid Martifel's hand for the hand of the fatal beauty of Marina Alexandrovna Gayden. Note that Nicholas Yusupov in six months should have been fulfilled 26 years ...

In recent years, in front of the revolution, Zinaida Nikolaevna began to actively criticize the Empress Alexander Fedorovna for her fanatical passionate to Rasputin, which led to a complete rupture of relations with the royal family, and so worsened because of a recent family scandal. About their last meeting in the summer of 1916 and the "cold reception" the son of Zinaida Nikolaevna, Felix, wrote: "... Tsarina, silently, his hearing, rose and broke up with her with words:" I hope I will never see you again.

Before the seizure of Crimea by the Bolsheviks, April 13, 1919, they left Russia (together with the family of Grand Prince Alexander Mikhailovich) at the British battleship "Malboro" and emigrated to Italy.

History of the genus yusupov

According to the documents, the biography of the princely kind is rooted in the Baghdad Caliphate X century, where the ancestors of Yusupov were emirs, sultans, supreme dignitaries and military leaders. In the XII century, the descendants of one of the powerful branches of this kind have moved to the shores of the Azov and Caspian seas. Two centuries later, their descendant, Timura's courageous commander, founded the Nogai Horde. In the middle of the XVI century, at his great directions, Khan Yusuf, the Nogai Horde reached his heyday. Two sons of Yusuf in 1563 appeared in Moscow at the court of King John Grozny.

In 1830, I was granted by the emperor Nikolai Ire the rare difference Epolet, covered with pearls and diamonds.

The prince's wife was Tatiana Vasilyevna, nee Engelhardt. She remained in the memory of contemporaries by the smart and hospitable hostess of the exquisite salon. The chosen circle of her friends included Derzhanin, Zhukovsky, Wings, Pushkin.

Among the riches of the family were distinguished by unheard of artistic collections and unprecedented beauty Palaces - Moscow in Kharitiyevsky Lane, Moscow region in Arkhangelsk, Korean in Crimea and St. Petersburg on washing.

Wait for the state of the state ... " Fortunately, the most ancient genus is not a UGAS, although the family suffered a proud loss. At the age of 25, the eldest son of Yusupovy Nikolai duel was duel.

The fate of the younger son of Felix (), his actions, raising generally accepted secular rules, his reputation of frivolous hinds was very disturbed by Zinaida Nikolaevna. The desire of the Son is to be cooled and marry, was perceived by their parents with great joy. Princess Imperial Blood Irina Alexandrovna was a brilliant party for the descendant of an ancient and noble kind of yusupov. Newlywed parents - grandson of Nicholas I Grand Duke Alexander Mikhailovich and daughter Alexandra III great Princess Xenia Aleksandrovna contributed to the conclusion of this marriage.
