Ever seen a line that looks like a face before you realize it’s a street map? That’s Saul Steinberg’s party trick—he turned the whole world into a doodle. The guy spent decades sketching New York’s subway grates, Parisian cafés, and Amazon riverboats with a single continuous stroke, making every inch feel like a cartoon waiting to happen. Tap into *Figures at Seaside* and you’ll spot a beach scene where the shore itself is a row of grinning mouths.
