Grillon 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 sleek black outfit. She’s wearing a long coat with a high collar, a fitted dress with pleats, and pointed heels. Her hair is short and styled neatly, and she’s holding a small purse. The artist signed it “Grillon” in the corner, but this is actually a drawing by Carven. The loose, sketchy lines make the clothes look modern and stylish. Check out the Museum of Ethnography to see where this drawing is kept.
These delicate ink-on-paper drawings capture the quiet poetry of everyday things: pinecones, reeds, apples.
