About this work

This drawing shows a woman in a long, green coat with big buttons down the front. She’s standing straight, hands tucked inside the pockets, and wearing a hat pulled low. The coat looks thick and slightly loose, with a simple belt at the waist. The sketch is loose and quick, almost like a fashion sketch. The artist focused on the shape and style of the coat rather than details. Look up womenswear to see how clothing like this fits into fashion history.

Carven

These delicate ink-on-paper drawings capture the quiet poetry of everyday things: pinecones, reeds, apples.
