About this work

The image shows a woman wearing a long coat and a hat. The coat is knee-length and has a collar and buttons down the front. The woman is standing with her left leg slightly bent, and her right arm is at her side. She is wearing high heels and has short hair. The background of the image is white. In the bottom-right corner of the image, there is a small drawing of the back of the coat. The coat has a collar and buttons down the back, and it is shown from a side view. The image appears to be a fashion illustration, possibly from the mid-20th century. The style of the clothing and the simplicity of the background suggest that it may have been created for a fashion magazine or catalog. To learn more about the artist's work, look up Carven.
