Footnotes

Provenance:
Property from The Iain Macmillan Collection.

Iain Macmillan grew up in Scotland, before moving to London to become a professional photographer. After using a photo of Yoko Ono in a book he published in 1966, Ono invited him to photograph her exhibit at Indica Gallery. There she introduced him to John Lennon, which led to Lennon inviting him to photograph the cover for The Beatles' album Abbey Road. Macmillan worked with Lennon and Ono for several years, even staying at their home in New York.
