About this work

This drawing shows a woman from behind, wearing a long, peach-colored coat with big, dark floral splashes. The coat has a high collar and buttons down the front. Her hair is pulled back, and she’s holding a small purse or gloves in one hand. The artist signed the name *Ludovic* in the corner—but the real artist is Carven, who often drew fashion sketches like this. The bold flowers on the coat look almost like paint splatters. Next, look up Carven to see more of their fashion drawings.

Carven

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