{"product_id":"the-new-yorker-copy-175","title":"King of the Jungle- The New Yorker","description":"\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCharles Addams delivers a masterclass in visual wit with this September 1972 New Yorker cover, transforming the corporate organizational chart, that ubiquitous symbol of 1970s business culture, into a scene of savanna absurdism. A magnificently rendered lion, every inch the CEO, stands before an easel pointing to his animal kingdom hierarchy with bureaucratic seriousness. The pyramid chart places him at the apex, naturally, with tigers and polar bears in upper management, while chickens and mice occupy the bottom rungs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAddams's watercolor technique brings warmth to this satirical scene, the golden African grass swaying beneath a soft blue sky while the lion conducts his quarterly review. The colored boxes containing each animal species echo the sterile graphics of actual corporate presentations, heightening the comedy. It's a perfect example of The New Yorker's ability to skewer contemporary culture with elegant restraint.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA standout piece for collectors of Addams's work or mid-century American illustration, this cover captures both the artist's characteristic cleverness and the magazine's sophisticated editorial voice at their peak.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-label=\"Size\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 11.5\" x 8.0\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-label=\"Artist\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eArtist:\u003c\/strong\u003e Charles Addams\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-label=\"Condition\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition:\u003c\/strong\u003e Good, * Please note that this listing is for the cover artwork, and not the magazine as a whole.
