Oiseau de feu
1958
From the collection of Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris
Oiseau de feu is a 1958 by Carven, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This drawing depicts a woman from behind, wearing a knee-length red coat with a belt around the waist. She has short hair and is wearing white high heels. The background is a light beige color. The woman's posture suggests she is standing still, possibly posing for the artist. The drawing appears to be a study of the woman's figure and the folds of her coat. The simple yet elegant style of the drawing is reminiscent of the work of Carven, who was known for her fashion illustrations.
These delicate ink-on-paper drawings capture the quiet poetry of everyday things: pinecones, reeds, apples.
