Koh-i-noor is a 1956 by Carven, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a woman in a flowing dress, mid-movement. Her arms are outstretched, and the fabric swirls around her legs. The lines are loose and quick, with some areas filled in lightly, like her dress and hair. The artist used simple marks to suggest motion and shape. The name "Koh-i-noor" is written in the corner, which might hint at something beyond the drawing itself. Check out cross-hatching to see how artists build form with lines.
These delicate ink-on-paper drawings capture the quiet poetry of everyday things: pinecones, reeds, apples.
