Семья Ростовых, как она представлена в начале романа Льва Толстого «Война и мир», — это богатое и гостеприимное семейство, живущее в особняке в центре Москвы. Они известны своим тёплым и оживлённым домом.

Глава семьи — граф Ростов, добросердечный, дружелюбный, гостеприимный и весёлый человек, который любит хорошие шутки. Его жена, графиня Ростова, — худая, красивая, величавая женщина с торжественным выражением лица.

У них четверо детей и племянница, живущая с ними. Вера, старшая дочь, красива и хорошо образованна, но неестественна в манерах. Наташа, младшая дочь, — темноволосая, черноглазая, проворная и энергичная девушка, очень естественная и счастливая, которая любит петь и привлекает всеобщее внимание. Старший сын, Николай, — дружелюбный, энергичный и оптимистичный молодой человек. Младший сын, Петя, — пухлый, весёлый и избалованный. Их племянница, Соня, — стройная, изящная, сдержанная и застенчивая.

Отношения в семье характеризуются уважением к родителям, нежностью, любовью и заботой друг о друге. Родители балуют своих детей, исполняют их желания и запрещают ссоры. Свободное время они проводят, принимая гостей, устраивая вечеринки, отправляясь на охоту, слушая концерты и поя под аккомпанемент фортепиано.
