One of Bishop's great masterpieces!
What a wonderful drawing this is! Of course, there's the execution. Mixed methods: somethings done by hand, pen and ink, large part in airbrush of course, with, I suspect some hand brush work added on for some of the sharp lines in the corset and the horse, and another cut out print as the background. Again, this results in a great variety of defined materials, like hard plastic for the horse, skin on the model, and soft but stern material for the corset, to name a few.
But what makes this image great of course, is the subject. The humiliation of a grown up woman on this kiddy attraction, and especially the way in which he simulates the motion here. In the hair, in the reins, the tail of the horse. And the point in the up and down cycle he has chosen; as a viewer you can already imagine the next, forward motion with the hair flying back again etc.
On top of that, there's the implicit fact that she can't stop it, like an involuntary part in an perpetuum mobile.
Classic Bishop!
