Anna Pavlovna of Russia was Queen of the Netherlands by marriage to King William II of the Netherlands. She was a Russian patriot who upheld a strict royal etiquette in the Netherlands, where she never felt at home, and identified more as an imperial Russian grand duchess than a Dutch queen. She had no political influence, but was active within charity.
She is the paternal grandmother of Wilhelmina of the Netherlands, via her eldest son, William III.
Queen consort of the Netherlands (1795-1865)
