'Pétrole' is a 1949 by Carven, depicting Womenswear, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
The image presents a drawing of a woman wearing a long coat, with her left arm extended and her right arm bent at the elbow. The coat is dark in color, and the woman's head is turned to her right. Her legs are visible from the knees down, and she is wearing high heels. The drawing is rendered in a simple yet elegant style, with clean lines and minimal shading. The overall effect is one of understated sophistication. This piece is reminiscent of the work of Carven, who is known for their elegant and refined designs.
These delicate ink-on-paper drawings capture the quiet poetry of everyday things: pinecones, reeds, apples.
