Wow. This is his wake isn't it? Thanks for sharing!

There are references to this photo as being of Victor Hugo on his deathbed, but none say whether it is pre or post mortem. Certainly the year (1885) is right for this.
Louis Keiner said:
It's amusing that the date is 1885 and Flickr lists the camera used as a Canon EOS 5D Mark II. ;-)

Louis Keiner That's nothing, Fox Talbot was using one in 1843!

Beautiful and peaceful image. It looks as if she is sleeping

She looks very sweet. This much more natural than most post mortem images; it's as though she's just having a nap in the afternoon.
