About the Item
"John Lennon and Yoko Ono" photographed in front of the Dakota apartment in New York City in 1980 by Allan Tannenbaum, two weeks before Lennon's death. This framed photograph was previously displayed in a guest room at the original Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada, and comes with a certificate of authenticity and commemorative plaque to this effect. The image size is approximately 9 x 13 inches. The text to the right of the photo, which measures approximately 9 x 6 inches, reads: "Yoko Ono and John Lennon New York City 1980 Coming out of seclusion after five years, John Lennon and Yoko Oko agreed to be interviewed to promote their new album, 'Double Fantasy." One of the most powerful shots captured was the couple posing in front of the Dakota, the iconic building that has become a permanent part of the Lennon legend. The Dakota, located at the corner of 72nd Street and Central Park West, has been home to dozens of the world's elite entertainers including Leonard Bernstein, Roberta Flack, Boris Karloff, Gilda Radner, Rudolf Nureyev, Judy Garland & Lauren Bacall. It was also famous for denying residency to many notable people including Gene Simmons and Billy Joel. On December 8, 1989, two weeks after this photo was taken, John Lennon was shot on the doorstep of the Dakota. He was 40 years old when he was assassinated. While still a Beatle, Lennon was asked how he might die. Lennon ironically replied, 'I'll probably be popped off by some loony.' Photograph ©2009 by Allan Tannenbaum from the book 'New York in the 70s.'"

Allan Tannenbaum
Allan Tannenbaum (American, b.1945) is an esteemed photojournalist and fine art photographer. Born in Passaic, NJ and a graduate of Rutgers University, Tannenbaum got his start taking pictures for his campus newspaper, The Targum. He later moved to New York and served as the chief photographer and photo editor for the SoHo Weekly News from its founding in 1973 until the publication closed in 1982. His documentation of New York art, music, and nightlife has become iconic, particularly his definitive coverage of the burgeoning 1970s punk scene. Tannenbaum’s work has also appeared in Newsweek, New York Magazine, Paris Match, and Rolling Stone, among others. Since the mid-1980s, he has covered political stories and campaigns on both the national and international stage, notably traveling to Kuwait and Iraq to document Operation Desert Storm. He has also exhibited his fine art photographs at numerous institutions, including the Pushkin Museum in Moscow, the Cité de la Musique in Paris, and Govinda Gallery in New York, and published several critically acclaimed photobooks, such as New York in the 70s(2003) and John & Yoko: A New York Love Story (2007). He continues to live and work in New York.
