About this work

This drawing shows a woman in a bright red outfit with a fitted jacket and a flared skirt. Her pose is confident, with one hand in her pocket and the other resting on her hip. Next to her is a simple sketch of the same dress from the back, showing its clean lines. The red dress has small buttons down the front and a slight train at the back. The sketch style is loose but precise, focusing on the shape and movement of the clothing. Check out the Museum of Ethnography to see more works like this.

Carven

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