"JOHN LENNON CIGARETTE BREAK, NEW YORK CITY, 1980"

Ink jet print

1988

Signed, Numbered, Titled & dated in pencil by the artist

Provenance: All of our Allan Tannenbaum prints come from The Williams Gallery (via William Back) which was the exclusive representative of Allan Tannenbaum from 1980 to 2006About the John Lennon collection: In November 1980, on the eve of John Lennon's untimely murder by a lone gunman, photographer Allan Tannenbaum had unique and total access to John and Yoko, who was emerging from five years of seclusion and avoiding the media. As one of the few photographers with whom John and Yoko were close, Tannenbaum was privileged to be able to capture many intimate moments between the two. The resulting photographs, many of which have never before been available to the public, portray a couple deeply in love–playful, spiritual, and remarkably at home in front of the camera while expressing their feelings to each other. John cherished these images of Yoko and was moved by their beauty and grace.
