Inspired By A Commentista: More Saul Steinberg

______________________________________________________________________________________

She not only inspired a blogular comment fest
but that Commentista is also responsible for
Saul Steinberg getting his due
from Mr. Oliveriue.


Steinberg 
View of the World From 9th Avenue





No New Yorker Magazine Cover
better defines the original purpose
of  this magnum opus
as drawn by
Saul










Other than to say that if there were a Group Of  Deities
ruling the wonderful world of New Yorker cartoonery,
Saul Steinberg is one of them.

The following Steinbergian images
need no verbal commentary 
from me.



































































Saul Steinberg
(1914-1999)
 

  Mr. Steinberg was born in Romania 
  and 2014 is the centennial 
  of his birth.

    The photograph of the artist
    makes it SIX images.

    with give you access to–
    at least–one-half a gazillion
    Steinbergian images.
