Klappentext For six decades, Saul Steinberg's covers, cartoons, features, and illustrations were a defining presence at "The New Yorker." This richly illustrated book explores the remarkable range and unceasing evolution of this major American modernist. Zusammenfassung Born in Romania in 1914, Steinberg studied architecture in Milan and made a name for himself as a cartoonist before fleeing fascist Italy in 1941. Avidly sponsored by The New Yorker, he arrived in Manhattan the following year, only to join the military on a worldwide tour of duty, which he chronicled in the pages of the magazine.
