'Boléro' is a 1951 by Carven, depicting Bolero, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This painting depicts a woman in a flowing white dress with black polka dots, standing in front of a white background. The woman's dress has a full skirt and a halter-neck top, and she is wearing a black shawl draped over her shoulders. Her dark hair is styled in an updo, and she is looking down to her right. The woman's dress is the main focus of the painting, and it is rendered in delicate brushstrokes and soft colors. The background is plain white, which helps to draw attention to the woman and her dress. If you're interested in learning more about the artist behind this painting, you might want to look up Carven.
These delicate ink-on-paper drawings capture the quiet poetry of everyday things: pinecones, reeds, apples.
