A piano designed to be able to be played by the bedridden. Both the bed and piano are able to be rolled together for use.
If I understand correctly, it could also be used in the typical piano set-up, but if you weren't bedridden and had the option to play the piano from your bed, why wouldn't you?

Marie Høeg, by Berg & Hoeg, ca. 1895-1903, from the Preus museum collection
"Marie Hoeg sits crossed-legged in her underwear, with her initials on the collar. Her hair is short, her gaze is strong, and the cigarette is dangling."
