'Railway' is a 1949 by Carven, depicting Overcoat, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a woman in a long overcoat with a wide belt. The coat is loose, and the sleeves are slightly puffy at the shoulders. The background is plain, and the drawing uses quick, sketchy lines with some watercolor shading. The title "Railway" is written in the corner, but it’s unclear why. The style looks simple and fast, like a quick study rather than a finished piece. If you like this sketchy style, check out cross-hatching.
These delicate ink-on-paper drawings capture the quiet poetry of everyday things: pinecones, reeds, apples.
