Description: EXTRA... EXTRA... READ ALL ABOUT IT ! WOMAN OF THE TIMES ! POP ART FEATURING VINTAGE NY TIMES ! ARTHUR SULZBERGER ERA ICONIC SEVENTIES POP ART ! DIMENSIONS APPROX . 24 " x 18 " SIGNED This wonderful work of pop art absolutely captures the lifestyle of the seventies New Yorker! Astute and informed we see a young woman lying in bed reading the New York Times! She is surrounded by a sea of the most beautiful flowers and this may symbolize her thoughts, personality or happiness. "Flower Power" was a phrase that this period employed to describe their generation - and this work has plenty of it! A Feminist statement of emancipation is embodied in this work as a woman is free to inform herself and indulge her dreams! Vintage pop art like this piece are now incredibly rare. The pieces of New York times used to create the miniature paper are now yellowed with age and give the work even more appeal. It shows creativity and charm that encapsulates this period! This work was a gift by the artist and one can tell it was a labor of love with more effort poured into it making it the sublime piece it is! Little details enhance this period pop-art including a McDonalds logo, Charles Schulz's character Woodstock and images of celebrities such as Nichelle Nichols from the original Star Trek! All icons of the late 60s and early 70s! This is the most magnificent NY - themed pop art we have seen come to market in recent years - a remarkable opportunity for the collector of mid century pop art! A *MUST* have for your POP ART collection! Mid Century NY Pop Art For Your Cosmopolitan Collection ! _____________________________________________________ All text, images and descriptions Copyright GALLERY 20TH. 2025. All Rights Reserved.
