The book opens the door to a fascinating world where Julian Lennon combines his dual talents as a musician and photographer. Julian Lennon takes the viewer on a visual journey characterised by unusual angles and artistic finesse.

The artistic diversity of the illustrated book reflects Lennon's impressive career. As a musician with a creative legacy from John Lennon, his photographs enter new territory. The images range from picturesque landscapes to urban street scenes, with each shot seeming to tell its own story. This diversity allows the reader to experience the unique perspective of a man who successfully combines different creative worlds.

Yet the book is more than just a visual presentation. It also opens the door to Julian Lennon's world of thoughts. The illustrated book provides deep insights into the artist's creative process, his inspirations, and emotions. Authenticity is at the forefront as Lennon shares his personal voice with the readers, creating a connection between viewer and artwork.

Text in English and German.

However, as an observer of life in all its forms, he quickly developed his personal expression through other mediums such as documentary films, philanthropy and fine art photography. He made his debut in the field of fine art photography in 2010 with his first exhibition Timeless at the Morrison Hotel Gallery in New York City. Since then, he has exhibited his work throughout the United States and in several countries worldwide. In 2020, he was the first photographer to be exhibited at the prestigious Aston Martin Residences in Miami.
