About this work

This sketch shows a woman in a bright red suit with a matching skirt and long gloves. She stands confidently, one hand resting on her hip. The lines are bold and simple, with a small flat drawing of the jacket next to her. The red suit looks sharp and modern, with clean edges and a high collar. The artist’s handwriting in the corner says “Kopte ‘76,” which might hint at the year. Want to see more work like this? Check out Carven.

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