Sean Lennon and his model girlfriend Kemp Muhl have recreated the iconic Rolling Stone cover of Lennon’s parents, Yoko Ono and John Lennon, taken by Annie Leibovitz.

In the picture below was taken by Terry Richardson for the fall issue of Purple magazine.

Sean stays clothed, in the Yoko role, while Muhl is nude and curled up against his side.

The debate over the meaning of the image can rage on, but we interpret it to mean, John was insecure, and relied on a dominant Yoko for emotional security, while the opposite is true in the picture of Sean and Kemp, although the Sean and Kemp picture is stage, so the intended message may be accurate, and yet untrue in reality.

On a side note, Leibovitz may be losing her right to a $40 million dollar picture collection she used as collateral for a $24 million loan, that she is unable to repay. One of the pictures in that collection is that of John Lennon and Yoko Ono.
