The Monday Tilley Watch Takes A Glancing Look At The Art & Artists Of The Latest Issue Of The New Yorker
The Cover: The artist is the one-and-only Edward Koren. How great is that! A brief Q&A with the artist here. A not-so-brief Q&A with him here.
The Cartoonists & Cartoons:
Twelve cartoons, thirteen cartoonists (including the cover artist). No newbies, and no duos (that we know of). The longest active cartoonist in the issue is the cover artist, Edward Koren, who is celebrating his 60th year contributing to The New Yorker.
The Rea Irvin Talk Watch:
Above: perfection from Rea Irvin, bumped after 92 years and replaced by — gasp! — a redraw in the Spring of 2017. Read about it here.
