About this work

This sketch shows a woman in a long, flowing white dress with a simple belt at the waist. Her hair is pulled back, and she’s wearing a bracelet on one wrist. The dress has a loose, airy train that sweeps behind her. The title *Mon ange* (French for "my angel") is written at the top, giving the drawing a personal touch. The loose lines and quick strokes make it feel like a quick, expressive study rather than a polished work. Look up Carven to see more of this artist’s fashion sketches.
