Here is a much higher quality version of this image. Credit to the photographer, Mary Ellen Mark. Here are a few more pictures from this series. Here is the source.

Per here (you have to scroll right five times), she relayed:

"It was an honor, as well as a great pleasure to photograph Robin Williams. From the moment we started working he was in constant motion and effortlessly inventing a never ending stream of wonderful ideas. At the end of the shoot I was exhausted and he was still firing on all cylinders as if nothing had happened."

That reminded me of where I got married way back in 1999. The jutting out portion on GG bridge just above Robin's left shoulder.

For anyone who is interested, his wife Susan wrote an essay published in the American Academy of Neurology describing what it was like for her and Robin managing his illness. It's heartbreaking and extremely eye-opening on what really happened and the severity of his illness.

Rest in Peace Robin, we will always miss your spark.
