From April to August 2014, Catherine in St. Petersburg starred as the maid of honor Anna Vyrubova in the historical series directed by Andrei Malyukov “ Grigory R. ", Based on documentary evidence about the life of Grigory Rasputin . When creating an artistic image of a lady-in-waiting, who is neither internally nor externally similar to herself, an important acting task for Klimova was not to distort the fate and character of the real person, who left a mark on the chronicles. The script for the film was based, in particular, on the diaries of Klimova's character, Anna Vyrubova. In the frame, Catherine wears genuine 19th-century shoes, her dresses and costumes were sewn according to old patterns. The most valuable, historically convincing acting works of the film, embodying the strength and indomitability of the Russian spirit, are recognized as the roles of Klimova and the “Siberian elder” ( Vladimir Mashkov ), permeated with passion and dramatic intensity ( Vladimir Mashkov ).
