Cover The New Yorker!

COVER STORY: NEW YORKERS IN LOVE
POSTED BY MINA KANEKO AND FRANCOISE MOULY

“It’s not me on the park bench!” says Luci Gutiérrez, the thirty-five-year-old artist from Barcelona who drew “I Love,” the cover of this week’s issue. “But I wear these kinds of hats—very French—so, I guess there is something of me in her,” she says. “I think of them as typical young New Yorkers. I spent some months living there, and I love to draw the people."

When you look at New Yorkers, you can see some things that simply don’t change. Witness the slide show below of loving couples in Art Deco New Yorker covers from the nineteen-twenties.
