John Lennon and Yoko Ono: Photographed by Annie Leibovitz - 8th December 1980


Taken by Annie Leibovitz in 1980 for Rolling Stone Magazine... four hours before he was shot apparently. It ended up being the front cover after his death with only the Rolling Stone logo at the top. A great picture. Rolling Stone Magazine, Issue #335 (Jan. 22, 1981)
"What is interesting is she said she'd take her top off and I said, 'Leave everything on' -- not really preconceiving the picture at all. Then he curled up next to her and it was very, very strong. You couldn't help but feel that she was cold and he looked like he was clinging on to her. I think it was amazing to look at the first Polaroid and they were both very excited."
