Brahms' last photograph

Or so it was labelled when I found it. It's one of the things you find online that are interesting, but you don't know the back story. I'm assuming that finally the chair gave way.

I kind of like that he's smoking up until the end. Doctors wouldn't allow that sort of thing nowadays: "We have no effective treatment for your disease and we know that you'll be dead soon, but, dammit, No Smoking!"
