Steinberg, after Saul (Romanian-American, 1914-1999), View of the World from 9th Avenue, 1976, reproduction prints, 14 x 19 inches, unframed. Steinberg worked for The New Yorker for nearly 60 years, during which time he created almost 90 covers and over 1200 drawings for the magazine. The concept and rendering of this image are a perfect demonstration of Steinberg's sense of the absurd, which was an instrumental part of his work. This image is by far his most famous parodying New Yorkers’ narrow-minded view of the world beyond the Hudson. It originally appeared as a cover of the magazine on March 29, 1976, and became so popular that it was issued in a poster format.
