About this work

This sketch shows a woman in a loose, flowing dress with a deep V-neck and wide sleeves. The dress is a soft pink with scattered dark shapes—maybe leaves or abstract patterns—dotted across it. Next to her stands a simpler dress with a fitted bodice and flared skirt, drawn in quick, light lines. The sketch feels quick and loose, like a first idea jotted down fast. The handwriting in the corner says "Infante," but it’s unclear what that means here. If you like fashion sketches, check out womenswear from the 1950s.

Carven

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