In the face of war, Russians' discontent was temporarily cooled by strong patriotic passion, and they should unite to defend their motherland. In order to comfort the suffering people, and at the same time strive to improve their patriotic image and care about current events, Queen Alexandra and her two daughters participated in nursing training, turned the Winter Palace into a temporary hospital, and participated in nursing the wounded. At that time, Russia had great hopes of winning the war, and Faberge was ordered to continue to make eggs. Faberge changed the style of Easter eggs in that year in order to cope with the domestic sadness and the efforts of the royal family.
