Limited edition reprint of a classic April 2, 1960 The New Yorker cover illustration by celebrated artist and cartoonist Saul Steinberg. The composition presents a stylized New York cityscape with iconic skyscrapers rendered in Steinberg’s signature linear, architectural style, centered around a monumental modernist tower rising above bustling streets below. Subtle washes of color suggest a glowing sunset, contrasting with the finely drawn urban density and whimsical perspective.
This example is numbered 90/750 in pencil at the lower margin. The work is professionally matted and framed. The verso bears a printed label from The Cartoon Bank confirming authorized reprint status and copyright by The Saul Steinberg Foundation, with permission of The New Yorker.
A highly recognizable and collectible image from one of the 20th century’s most influential illustrators, well-suited for collectors of New Yorker art, mid-century illustration, and graphic design.
