About this work

This sketch shows a woman in a simple red dress with a tied sash at the waist. Her hair is pulled back, and she stands with one hand resting on her hip. The lines are loose and quick, like a quick study rather than a finished drawing. The title *Pyrénées* might hint at a connection to the mountains, but here the focus is just on the figure. The small sketch in the corner looks like a quick note for another pose. Next, check out Carven to see more of their fashion sketches.

Carven

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