Perle is a 1952 by Carven, depicting Bead, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
The painting shows a woman in a white dress, with her left hand on her hip and her right arm raised. She is wearing a white hat and has a pearl earring. The background is a light beige color. The woman's dress is strapless and has a long train. It appears to be made of a shiny material, possibly satin or silk. The dress is fitted at the waist and flares out at the hem. The woman's pose suggests that she is confident and elegant. The painting is a beautiful representation of a woman in a formal gown.

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