Olive noire is a 1955 by Carven, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This drawing depicts a woman in a black dress with a low-cut back, her red hair styled in an updo. She wears white gloves and heels, with her left hand raised and her right hand on her hip. The dress features a V-shaped neckline and short sleeves, with a full skirt that falls just below the knee. The woman's pose suggests confidence and poise. The drawing is rendered in a simple yet elegant style, with clean lines and minimal shading. To learn more about the artist's technique, look up cross-hatching.
These delicate ink-on-paper drawings capture the quiet poetry of everyday things: pinecones, reeds, apples.
