What an interesting article, full of thoughtful commentary. I read a book about Nicholas and Alexandra recently; they’re a beautiful example of a loving and devout Christian family.

I believe, the feast is celebrated differently in what now remains of ROCOR and in MP, and that might explain the different icon. MP did not recognize all the saints that ROCOR had canonized. Not being Orthodox I cannot say for sure.
