About this work

This sketch shows a woman in a simple, tailored outfit. She’s wearing a light-brown coat with two front pockets and a collar, paired with a matching skirt that hits just above the knee. Her hair is pulled back under a round hat, and she stands with one leg slightly in front of the other. The drawing is loose and quick, with clean lines and minimal shading. The focus is on the clothing, not the person, making it look like a fashion study. If you like this style, check out more womenswear from the same era.

Carven

These delicate ink-on-paper drawings capture the quiet poetry of everyday things: pinecones, reeds, apples.
