Maïs
1957
From the collection of Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris
Maïs is a 1957 by Carven, depicting Stone, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This quick sketch shows a woman in a simple yellow dress with a fitted top and flared skirt. Her left hand rests on her hip, and her right holds a small bag. The lines are loose and light, with just a few shadows to show shape. The artist signed it *"Maïs"* in the corner—maybe the dress’s name or a nickname. The drawing feels like a fast idea jotted down, not a polished work. Next, check out Carven, the artist behind this sketch.
These delicate ink-on-paper drawings capture the quiet poetry of everyday things: pinecones, reeds, apples.
