Cormoran is a 1952 by Carven, depicting Womenswear, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a woman in a bright yellow coat and long dress, standing sideways. Her hair is pulled back, and she holds her hands in front of her. Behind her, a chair and a small bird perched on a table are barely drawn in. The artist used quick, bold lines to focus on the woman’s outfit and pose. The background is simple, almost like a quick note rather than a full scene. Want to see more? Check out Carven.
These delicate ink-on-paper drawings capture the quiet poetry of everyday things: pinecones, reeds, apples.
