Cyprès
1959
From the collection of Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris
Cyprès is a 1959 by Carven, depicting Button, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a woman standing confidently on a dark bench. She’s wearing a light gray suit with a short jacket, a long skirt, and a wide-brimmed hat. Her hands rest on her chest, and she’s wearing low heels. The jacket has two circular buttons, and the skirt has a small slit. The drawing is simple but precise, focusing on clean lines and shapes. The small sketch of the jacket in the corner looks like a pattern draft. Next, check out cross-hatching to see how artists build shading with lines.
These delicate ink-on-paper drawings capture the quiet poetry of everyday things: pinecones, reeds, apples.
