Kishin Shinoyama book. John Lennon & Yoko Ono. Double Fantasy, Art Edition No. 1–125 ‘Untitled’ - Taschen

A widely unseen series of portraits of John Lennon and Yoko Ono by Kishin Shinoyama, shot at Ono's request for the cover of the couple's 1980 album, Double Fantasy. With unique access to the couple's private apartment, Shinoyama captures this iconic pair at a decisive moment in their personal and creative relationship, just three months before Lennon's untimely death.
