This sketch shows a woman in a simple black dress with a fitted waist and a high collar. Her hair is styled in a neat updo, and she wears small earrings and low heels. The lines are loose but confident, with quick shading to show folds in the fabric. The small drawing in the corner suggests this might be a fashion sketch—just the dress shape without the full figure. The artist’s name, *Carven*, is written on the page.
