About this work

This drawing shows a woman from the back, wearing a long navy-blue coat with a high collar and a wide-brimmed hat tied under her chin. Her legs are long and slender, and she’s holding a small bag in one hand. The coat has a slit on one side, revealing a hint of her skirt underneath. The sketch includes a simple side-view outline of the same outfit, labeled "Préférence." The artist used clean, confident lines to show the shape and style of the clothing.
