About this work

This sketch shows a person walking away from us in a long, dark coat with a belt. Their hair is short, and they’re wearing gloves and low shoes. To the right, there’s a quick drawing of a jacket with buttons. The words "Premier consul" are written in the corner, which might hint at the outfit’s style or role. The drawing is loose and fast, like a quick idea rather than a finished work. If you like this sketchy style, look up cross-hatching.

Carven

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