Description: This New Yorker cover from September 15, 2003, offers a serene yet intricate depiction of the Manhattan skyline, reflected perfectly in still water below. The detailed linework, soft textures, and warm-toned buildings give the piece a timeless, architectural quality. Landmarks like the Empire State Building and the Chrysler Building stand tall—both in reality and in reflection—blending memory and imagination.
Artistic Insight: Illustrated by Gürbüz Doğan Ekşioğlu, this cover was selected for its emotional resonance and artistic complexity. Published two years after the events of 9/11, the image shows the Twin Towers still standing—visibly reflected but not physically present—a poetic tribute to their memory. The artwork invites viewers to reflect on the past while appreciating the enduring beauty of the New York City skyline.
