About this work

This sketch shows a woman in a long coat and hat, holding a tall object like a cane. The lines are loose and quick, with lots of black ink on a light background. Her coat has sharp angles, and the drawing looks a bit rough around the edges. The artist signed it "Corrida," which might hint at a connection to bullfighting or something lively. The style feels more like a quick sketch than a finished work. Check out Carven to see more of their bold, simple drawings.

Carven

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