Prince Nicholas Yusupov (1883-1908) was the elder brother of Felix Yusupov. He was the main heir to the Yusupov family's fortune, but was killed in a duel at the age of 26.
Vasilii Zuev was a court miniature painter, and a supplier of portraits to Fabergé. Having replaced Johannes Zehngraf as the chief miniature painter for the Imperial court, Zuev produced a large number of portraits of the Imperial family members in enamel and on ivory. His precise technique distinguished his portraits as uniquely lifelike. He was soon recruited to work for Fabergé and painted miniatures for a number of Imperial presentation snuff-boxes and Imperial eggs, such as the Fifteenth Anniversary Egg of 1911, and the Romanov Tercentenary Egg of 1913.
