Damoiselle is a 1951 by Carven, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This drawing depicts a woman in a white dress with a full skirt, her hair styled in an updo. The dress features a V-neckline and short sleeves, with a decorative pattern of gold accents on the bodice and sleeves. The background is a mix of gray and green hues. The woman's face is turned slightly to the left, and her eyes are closed. She appears to be standing in front of a wall or curtain, which is depicted in shades of gray and green. The overall effect is one of elegance and sophistication. The drawing is a beautiful example of Carven's work, and it can be found at the Museum of Ethnography.
These delicate ink-on-paper drawings capture the quiet poetry of everyday things: pinecones, reeds, apples.
