Here we have a great piece of New York City art from the 1970s. It's a mixed media collage piece by listed artist Fred Laros. The collage artwork was included in a solo show at the Krauschaar Galleries in New York in 1973. The pamphlet from the art exhibition is included with the painting.
Here is the New York Times article describing his show.
Here's a snippet:
"At Krauschaar, Mr. Laros's collages are small, rich and, at their best, characterized by acute attention to detail that makes them, oddly enough, a kind of collage equivalent of manuscript illumination. Unpretentious and in no way spectacular they are nevertheless in a class by themselves."
The New York Times art listing described the 1973 solo show as containing "small scale collages derived from nature."
Here is an interesting article about Mr. Laros' background with a picture:

This is a rare art piece from the New York City art scene, and funky with an ocean vibe. The sea is calling you.
