About this work

This drawing shows a woman in a simple black dress with short sleeves and a fitted waist. The skirt flares out slightly, and she wears low-heeled shoes. Her hair is pulled back neatly, and her pose is relaxed, with one hand resting on her hip. The sketch includes a small diagram of the dress’s back view, showing how it fits. The artist signed it "Grisbi" in the corner, which might be a nickname or project name. Check out Carven to learn more about the artist behind this design.
