Saul Steinberg created 85 covers and 642 internal drawings and illustrations for the magazine. His most famous work is probably its March 29, 1976, cover,<ref>{{Cite web |title=New Yorker March 29, 1976 by Saul Steinberg |url=https://condenaststore.com/featured/new-yorker-march-29-1976-saul-steinberg.html |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220304212518/https://condenaststore.com/featured/new-yorker-march-29-1976-saul-steinberg.html |archive-date=March 4, 2022 |access-date=April 5, 2022 |website=[[Condé Nast]]}}</ref> an illustration most often called "View of the World from [[Ninth Avenue (Manhattan)|9th Avenue]]" and sometimes called "A Parochial New Yorker's View of the World" or "A New Yorker's View of the World", which depicts a map of the world as seen by self-absorbed New Yorkers.

The illustration is split in two, with the bottom half of the image showing Manhattan's 9th Avenue, 10th Avenue, and the [[Hudson River]] (appropriately labeled), and the top half depicting the rest of the world. The rest of the United States is the size of the three New York City blocks and is drawn as a square, with a thin brown strip along the Hudson representing [[New Jersey|"Jersey"]], the names of five cities (Los Angeles; Washington, D.C.; [[Las Vegas, Nevada|Las Vegas]]; [[Kansas City, Missouri|Kansas City]]; and Chicago) and three states ([[Texas]], [[Utah]], and [[Nebraska]]) scattered among a few rocks for the U.S. beyond New Jersey. The Pacific Ocean, perhaps half again as wide as the Hudson, separates the U.S. from three flattened land masses labeled China, Japan and Russia.

The illustration—humorously depicting New Yorkers' self-image of their place in the world, or perhaps outsiders' view of New Yorkers' self-image—inspired many similar works, including the poster for the 1984 film ''[[Moscow on the Hudson]]''; that movie poster led to a lawsuit, ''[[Steinberg v. Columbia Pictures Industries, Inc.]]'', 663 F. Supp. 706 ([[United States District Court for the Southern District of New York|S.D.N.Y.]] 1987), which held that [[Columbia Pictures]] violated the [[copyright]] that Steinberg held on his work.

The cover was later satirized by [[Barry Blitt]] for the cover of ''The New Yorker'' on October 6, 2008. The cover featured [[Sarah Palin]] looking out of her window seeing only Alaska, with Russia in the far background.<ref>{{Cite web |date=October 6, 2008 |title=New Yorker Cover – 10/6/2008 at The New Yorker Store |url=http://www.condenaststore.com/-sp/The-New-Yorker-Cover-October-6-2008-Prints_i8482999_.htm |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120118060355/http://www.condenaststore.com/-sp/The-New-Yorker-Cover-October-6-2008-Prints_i8482999_.htm |archive-date=January 18, 2012 |access-date=October 15, 2010 |publisher=Newyorkerstore.com}}</ref>

The March 21, 2009, cover of ''[[The Economist]]'', "How China sees the World", is also an homage to the original image, depicting the viewpoint from Beijing's [[Chang'an Avenue]] instead of Manhattan.<ref>{{Cite news |date=March 21, 2009 |title=Issue Cover for March 21, 2009 |publisher=[[The Economist]] |url=http://www.economist.com/node/21521345 |url-status=live |access-date=August 26, 2012 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120225030405/http://www.economist.com/node/21521345 |archive-date=February 25, 2012}}</ref>
