About this work

This sketch shows a woman in a simple, sleek dress. The outfit has short sleeves, a collared top with buttons down the front, and a flared skirt with deep pleats. Her hair is short and neat, and she wears low-heeled shoes. Next to her is a flat drawing of the same dress from the back, showing the button line and skirt shape. The dress looks practical and stylish, with clean lines and a focus on fit. The artist used loose, confident strokes to show the fabric’s movement. Check out the museum: Museum of Ethnography to see more sketches like this.
