Description:
This New Yorker cover from October 2, 1971, offers a quiet glimpse into a home filled with life—of the leafy kind. Potted plants spill across a window sill, reaching toward the glass, while a well-dressed man gazes out, half-hidden among the greenery. The soft textures and subtle humor make this a perfect piece for plant lovers and introverts alike.
Artistic Insight:
Drawn by Charles Martin, this cover was chosen for its simple, poetic composition and timeless appeal. It playfully blurs the line between human and houseplant, suggesting the comfort and companionship of indoor greenery long before “plant parenthood” became trendy. The muted color palette and hand-drawn style reflect a 1970s design sensibility that still resonates with today’s love for cozy, nature-filled interiors.
