The Night Walker

This week’s cover illustration for The New Yorker by the hugely talented Mark Ulriksen depicts all the emotions that a night walk around New York evokes.  Feelings of wonder and excitement in finding oneself amongst powerful architecture in the still of the night brings peace and exhilaration in equal measure and feeds part of our soul that daytime never reaches.  In this fascinating insight, Mark discusses his passion for a late-night stroll with his wife, Leslie.
