'Mayerling' is a 1949 by Carven, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
The painting 'Mayerling' by Carven depicts a woman in a dress, rendered in black and white. The woman is shown from the side, with her body facing the left side of the image. She is wearing a short-sleeved dress with a high neckline and a full skirt that falls just below the knee. The dress has a subtle sheen to it, suggesting that it may be made of silk or another smooth fabric. The woman's hair is pulled back, and she is wearing high heels that add to her overall elegance. The painting is a beautiful example of Carven's skill as an artist, and it is a great representation of the fashion of the time.

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