About this work

This sketch shows a woman in a simple gray dress with a flared skirt. Her sleeves are short, and the dress has three small button-like shapes down the front. She’s standing sideways, one hand raised as if mid-gesture, with a small sketch of the dress back view tucked in the corner. The title scribbled in the top right—*Pyramide*—might hint at the dress shape, but it’s unclear. The loose, confident lines suggest it’s a quick study, not a polished design.

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