Odalisque is a 1953 by Carven, depicting Womenswear, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This painting depicts a woman in a black dress with a red sash around her waist. The dress has a high collar and short sleeves, and the woman is wearing white gloves. Her dark hair is pulled back, and she is facing to the right. The background of the painting is a light color. The woman's pose suggests that she is standing, and her facial expression is neutral. The overall style of the painting is elegant and sophisticated. The Museum of Ethnography is a great place to learn more about the cultural context of this painting.
These delicate ink-on-paper drawings capture the quiet poetry of everyday things: pinecones, reeds, apples.
