Grand Duchess Elizaveta Mavrikievna, née Princess Elisabeth of Saxe-Altenburg, was a German princess who became a member of the Imperial Russian family through marriage. In 1884, she married Grand Duke Konstantin Konstantinovich, a grandson of Emperor Nicholas I. The couple had nine children together.

Known within the Romanov family as 'Mavra', she was a popular figure and maintained a close relationship with her nephew, Emperor Nicholas II. Both Elizaveta Mavrikievna and her husband were patrons of the arts and sponsored numerous exhibitions in St Petersburg. Grand Duke Konstantin Konstantinovich was an important Silver Age poet and playwright, who wrote under the pseudonym 'KR'. He also served as the President of the Academy of Sciences and as Inspector-General of Military Schools, helping to liberalise the education system.

After the Revolution of 1917, Elizaveta Mavrikievna and her two sons managed to leave Russia for Sweden and later Germany, where she died in 1927.
