When it comes to John Lennon, there is a lot to say. This legendary artist, along with The Beatles, changed the world, embodying a whole generation and continuing to inspire up to this day. Apart from his brilliance in music, John Lennon’s name will always be synonymous with peace and political activism – and that’s why we love him!
These 80 candid shots were taken by fans from the late 60s up until 1980 and show Lennon walking, signing autographs, hugging Yoko Ono, smiling and a lot more. Have a look!
