Roulis is a 1952 by Carven, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a dancer mid-movement, arms outstretched while balancing on one leg. The lines are loose and quick, with dark ink filling in the shape of a leotard and tights. The background is mostly blank paper, with a few stray marks and the name "Roulis" written in the corner. The artist captures the dancer’s energy with bold strokes, focusing on movement over detail. The sketch feels alive, like the dancer could step off the page at any moment. Want to see more work like this? Check out Carven.
These delicate ink-on-paper drawings capture the quiet poetry of everyday things: pinecones, reeds, apples.
