In "En Tiempos del Rey Bomba," Friedeberg mixes classical, modern, and pop culture elements. We can observe the repetition in various sizes of Ancient Greek drawings, as well as in images of Napoleon Bonaparte, Mickey Mouse, Betty Boop, and a monster-like figure, among others. The work showcases his characteristic use of geometric designs and color, tying the composition together.
