If it's anywhere, it's here

But I don't think that the last image of the LRV taken - it's too rocky for a LEM landing site.

Enrique:

That looks like an Apollo 15 shot to me, possibly a mosaic of several photos.

Try the Apollo Lunar Surface Journal site:

And the Project Apollo Image Gallery:

It's Apollo 17. From the low sun it must be EVA 1, maybe at Station 1, but probably not part of a regular panorama.

I followed Apollo 15 closely and I don't remember this one. Also, Earth will not show that low in the sky at Hadley so, Apollo 17 is more likely. Anyway, last (partial) view of a rover on the moon must have been shot...by the moon rover itself during lift off of the ascent module.
