On November 20, 1910, Leo Tolstoy, the revered author of classics like Anna Karenina, passed away at the age of 82, officially due to pneumonia.
Weeks before his death, Tolstoy made a dramatic decision to leave his wife and estate, moving towards a modest life away from wealth.
His final journey involved a train ride to the Caucasus, which ultimately taxed his frail health and led to his demise at a small station.
The 1969 BBC series provides rare footage capturing Tolstoy's final days, allowing viewers a glimpse into his end-of-life reflections.
