Item Description
"New Yorkistan" is the title of the cover art for the December 10, 2001 edition of New Yorker magazine. It was created by Maira Kalman and Rick Meyerowitz who did the actual painting, and is (according to the American Society of Magazine Editors) #14 on the list of the top 40 magazine covers of the past 40 years. It depicts the boroughs of New York City, as well as individual neighborhoods within the city, giving each a humorous name (a "funny mixture of Yiddish, Persian, and New Yorkisms") based on the history or geography of that area of the city, while playfully using names or suffixes common in the Middle East and Central Asia, such as "istan". Thus the title, "New Yorkistan".
Black Frame, 22"x 27"
