Peter de Sève’s “New York’s Toughest”
For the cover of the February 2, 2026, issue, the artist Peter de Sève celebrates the brave souls who continue to work when the city is paralyzed by a snowstorm. “Blizzards have provided some of my very fondest memories of living in New York,” de Sève said. “All sound is muffled. The few cars on the road are reduced to a crawl, and big grownups like myself become kids again.”
