About this work

This drawing shows a woman in a long, light blue coat with a fur collar, holding a walking stick. Her hair is short and neat, and she wears simple shoes. The coat is loose but has sharp lines, and there’s a small sketch of the coat’s back on the right side. The artist’s signature reads "Carven," which is also the name of a famous fashion house. The walking stick and the name "Jade" might hint at materials or colors used in the design. Look up Carven to see how fashion and art mixed in this style.
