About this work

This sketch shows a woman in a simple, sleeveless pink dress with bold stripes and a bow at the waist. The skirt flares slightly, and the dress is drawn in loose, confident lines. Below the figure, a smaller sketch of the same dress is shown from the back, with the same bow detail. The name "Framboisine" is written in the corner, which might be the dress’s nickname. The artist used quick, sketchy lines to show fabric folds and movement. Look up sleeveless to see how this style changed over time.

Carven

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