Beautiful girl in high heels and two piece suit has apparently been thrown from her horse as she pulls cactus thorns from her legs close to her buttock; she is in cowgirl garb.
Peter Driben was an American pin-up artist, best known for his vibrant and often cheeky illustrations that were a staple of mid-20th century popular culture. Born in 1903 in Boston, Massachusetts, Driben’s work gained prominence during the 1930s and 1940s, a period often considered the golden age of pin-up art.
Peter Driben’s pin-up art is characterized by its playful and light-hearted nature. His illustrations often featured glamorous and provocatively posed women, exuding a sense of confidence and allure. Driben had a knack for capturing the beauty and charm of the female form, using bold colors and dynamic compositions. His work was notable for its detailed and realistic rendering, combined with a slightly exaggerated, cartoonish quality that added a sense of fun and fantasy.
Driben’s pin-ups were widely published in pin-up magazines such as **”Beauty Parade,” “Titter,” “Wink,” “Rogue,” and “Flirt.” He also created cover art for paperback books and calendars. His work contributed significantly to the visual culture of his time, influencing both contemporary and later artists in the genre. Driben’s pin-ups were part of a broader movement that included other famous pin-up artists like Alberto Vargas, Gil Elvgren, and George Petty. These artists collectively helped to define the aesthetic of the pin-up girl, which became an iconic symbol of mid-century American popular culture, especially during World War II when such imagery was used to boost morale among soldiers.
