Pingouin is a 1953 by Carven, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This drawing, titled Pingouin, features a woman in a black dress with white trim, wearing a hat and gloves. She is posed with her arms outstretched, as if modeling the outfit. The background is a plain beige color. To the left and right of the woman are two small sketches of people, possibly other fashion designs. The overall style of the drawing is elegant and sophisticated, suggesting a high-end fashion illustration. The level of detail and the use of simple lines and shading suggest that the artist, Carven, may have used techniques such as cross-hatching or stippling to create the drawing.

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