About this work

This image depicts a drawing of a woman in a pink coat, accompanied by a smaller sketch of the coat's back. The woman is shown from the side, facing right, with her left hand raised and her right hand at her side. She wears a white head covering, white gloves, and high heels. The drawing is rendered in a simple, illustrative style, with bold lines and minimal shading. The pink coat is the focal point of the image, with the smaller sketch providing a sense of detail and texture. The simplicity and elegance of the drawing evoke the work of French fashion designer Carven.

Carven

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