The New Yorker isn’t Sports Illustrated, of course. But a fair number of sports, from basketball and baseball to golf and hockey, have graced the magazine's covers in one form or another since its founding in 1925.

Wikipedia describes a cityscape as “an artistic representation, such as a painting, drawing, print or photograph, of the physical aspects of a city or urban area. It is the urban equivalent of a landscape.” The New Yorker, which is based in New York City, has displayed a fair number of cityscapes on its cover.

The New Yorker has long been one of the most respected and influential magazines in the history of American publishing. So it comes as no surprise that many of its cover artists have chosen to showcase readers and reading.
