About this work

This drawing shows a woman in a bright red coat with big cuffs and a matching collar. She’s holding a small purse and a cigarette holder, looking confident. Next to her is a simple sketch of the same coat, but without sleeves or details. The artist labeled this *Caucase* in the corner—maybe it’s a fashion sketch or a quick study. The bold lines and flat colors make it look like it was drawn fast, almost like a blueprint. Check out Carven next—they designed real clothes too.

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