		He was on Catherines side during the revolution of I762, but his jealousy of the influence which the Orlovs seemed likely to obtain over the new empress predisposed him to favor the proclamation of his ward the grand duke Paul as emperor, with Catherine as regent only.
		To circumscribe the influence of the ruling favorites he next suggested the formation of a cabinet council of six or eight ministers, through whop all the business of the state was to be transacted; but Catherine, suspecting in the skilfully presented novelty a subtle attempt to limit her power, rejected it after some hesitation.
		He was forced to acquiesce in the first partition of Poland, and when Russia came off third best, Gregory Orlov declared in the council that the minister who had signed such a partition treaty was worthy of death.

	Tsar Peter III
		So far from being scandalized by the juxtaposition of "Das Fräulein" in the Winter Palace, Catherine accepted it as a matter of course, provided that her own relations with the handsome young guardsman, Gregory Orlov, were undisturbed.
		At first Catherine and her counsellors could not make up their minds what to do with "the former emperor." Imprisonment in Schlüsselburg for life, or repatriation to Holstein, were proposed only to be rejected as dangerous.
		The Orlovs had even stronger motives than Catherine for suppressing the ex-emperor, for Gregory Orlov aspired to win the hand as well as the heart of his imperial mistress, and so long as Catherine's lawful husband lived, even in a prison, such a union would be impossible.

		Starting in the 19th century, diplomats of lesser backgrounds began to amass collections, as did scions of the noble families who lived abroad and used their proximity to the art markets and to the artists of the age to further their collections.

		Unfortunately, here, the romantic notions of the movie industry took over from historical accuracy and common sense.
		The scene of Peter III's death at the hands of his guards and Alexej Orlov (not Grigorij), was well described in the documents of Catherine's time.
		Allowing, in the script, for the "romantic" scene in which Grigorij Orlov strangles Peter, and then tells Catherine of it in bed is the largest mistake of the film.
