About this work

This sketch shows a woman in a dark blue dress with a deep V-neck and a fitted waist. The skirt flares out wide, and she holds a matching hat with a wide brim. Her pose is confident, with one hand on her hip and the other holding the hat. The loose, sketchy lines suggest it was drawn quickly, focusing on shape over detail. The name "Carolle" is written in the corner, but it might just be a note. Next, look up Carven to see more of this artist’s work.
