Coucou is a 1956 by Carven, depicting Belt, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a woman in a simple, mid-length dress with short sleeves and a collar. She wears a cap and holds a small object in her right hand. The dress has a subtle checkered pattern, and her shoes are flat and straight across the toes. The artist used quick, loose lines to draw her, focusing on shapes over details. The word "coucou" (French for "hello") is scrawled in the corner—maybe a nickname for the drawing. Want to see more? Check out cross-hatching to learn how artists create texture with lines.
These delicate ink-on-paper drawings capture the quiet poetry of everyday things: pinecones, reeds, apples.
