Nah, I think Brahms was contemplating the diabolical d minor scherzo [2nd mvt] of his 2nd piano concerto, Op. 83, in B Flat Major . . . . . . .

Since it did not state it had to do with music:
Besides pgotographs of my family, this has always been my favorite picture by Neil Leifer.

Muhammad Ali vs. Sonny Liston
St. Dominick's Arena, Lewiston, Maine, May 25, 1965

Also liked these two of Lincoln:  The first is with his two secretaires.  The second is the last portrait taken April 10, 1865.  He was shot on April 14, died April 15.

 Brahms was concerned about looking too babyfaced and grew a beard to make himself look more manly.He was terribly selfconcious about his height also.

He was also selfconscious about his rather high-pitched voice . . . . . . .

In no way am I homosexual, but I see nothing unatractive about Brahms. But me being an unatractive male, I still wont grow more than a 1 week beard. I have played with an idea i call the royal goatee. You get a pharaoh beard with a gold thing at the end. And for the beard you put a rolly fingers mustache.
