A feast for the eyes!

Russian billionaire Roman Abramovich's partner, Dasha Zhukova has sparked an internet firestorm after an online magazine published a contentious photo of her sitting on a half-naked black woman on Martin Luther King Day. A lot of people accused her of being a racist and insisted the picture was offensive.

FashionBombDaily.com editor Claire Sulmers was among the first to express her disbelief, claiming the photo's message was startlingly clear: 'White dominance and superiority, articulated in a seemingly serene yet overtly degrading way.'

Dasha has since taken the picture down while apologising for the furore the image has caused. She said:

This photograph, which has been published completely out of context, is of an art work intended specifically as a commentary on gender and racial politics. I utterly abhor racism, and would like to apologise to anyone who has been offended by this image.

This isn't only about race and gender, but inequality across broad spectrum of humanity as well.
