About this work

This quick sketch shows a woman walking with a big hat and a long green coat. She’s holding a round purse and has a loose scarf draped over her shoulders. The dress is simple but has a small flower detail near the hem. The artist signed it *"Murcie"* in the corner, but this isn’t a name—it’s the title. The drawing feels like a quick, confident note of a fashion moment. Look up Carven next—they were a designer who shaped 1950s style.
