Saul Steinberg The New Yorker / View of the World from 9th Avenue vintage poster 1976 offset lithograph in colors 42 h x 29 w in (107 x 74 cm) Steinberg's 1976 cover for The New Yorker, also used as a poster, became legendary, iconic, endlessly copied and parodied throughout global culture, and a paragon of wit.
Cover illustrations for The New Yorker have always set the bar for flashes of deep insight. But none surpass Saul Steinberg's succinct encapsulation of a Manhattan mindset: globally self-important, yet improbably, paradoxically, deeply provincial at the same time.
