April 20, 2026
For the cover of the April 27, 2026, issue, the artist Christoph Niemann depicted a beloved spot in the West Village. “I spent my youth on outdoor basketball courts playing pickup games—until, as an adult, I tore my Achilles tendon trying to relive the past,” Niemann said. “Since then, I’ve resorted to running, swimming, and always stopping to watch the action at the Cage, as that West Fourth Street court is known, when I’m in the neighborhood.”
在2026年4月27日刊的封面上，艺术家克里斯托夫·尼曼描绘了西村一处备受喜爱的场所。"我的青春时光都在户外篮球场上打野球度过——直到成年后，我因试图重温旧梦而撕裂了跟腱，"尼曼说，"从那以后，我改成了跑步、游泳，每当路过那片街区时，总会驻足观看'笼子'球场上的激战——人们都这样称呼西四街那个球场。"
