This week’s cover, “Curiosities,” by Edward Steed. NewYorkerCovers
The world can feel somewhat surreal these days, with reports of chatbots approximating human speech and spy balloons floating over North America. With his cover of the February 27, 2023, issue, the cartoonist Edward Steed reminds us that strange is nothing new and that the world has long been filled with curiosities. I talked to the artist about mystery, human imagination, and the oddities that appear when we confront the unknown.
My first attempt at linocut was a set of spot drawings for this magazine. This cover is my second try at it. It’s such a tedious and unforgiving medium—it’s hard to get obsessed with. I’m not sure I like the cutting very much, but I do really like the way the prints look. And it’s good for me to try new media; it forces me to think differently about how to compose an image.
Yes, usually I’m listening to something. It’s good to find a song that matches the spirit of the drawing. In this case, something like Richard Dawson’s “The Ghost of a Tree” on YouTube.
