Description

A lithograph image of John Lennon and Yoko Ono from John Lennon’s 1969 Bag One collection.

  • John Lennon (English, 1940-1980).
  • Signed by John Lennon in pencil in the bottom right corner and numbered 209/300 in the bottom left corner.
  • The lithograph was autographed in the Toronto home of the American musician Ronnie Hawkins in December 1969.
  • This work is presented unframed.


The series of drawings were first published under the title Bag One and exhibited in January, 1970 at the London Art Gallery. On its second day of viewing, the exhibition was closed by Scotland Yard and the lithographs were confiscated because of their highly intimate and erotic nature. The case was ultimately dismissed when the magistrate decided that John's prints were "unlikely to deprave or corrupt.". It is printed on BFK Rivers Paper.
