Eve is a 1952 by Carven, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a woman in a long, flowing blue dress with a high waist and a wide skirt. Her hair is pulled back, and she wears simple jewelry. The dress has a small floral pattern near the shoulders, and the skirt swirls dramatically around her legs. The loose, brushy lines give the drawing a quick, lively feel. The artist used light and dark shades of blue to show depth in the fabric. Next, look up cross-hatching to see how artists build texture with lines.
These delicate ink-on-paper drawings capture the quiet poetry of everyday things: pinecones, reeds, apples.
