About this work

This sketch shows a woman in a simple, knee-length dress with a ruffled collar. The fabric has a soft, watercolor-like pattern of brown flowers and leaves. Her hair is pulled back neatly, and she’s wearing small earrings and flat shoes. The title *Sable d’or* hints at the dress’s color—maybe the "gold" refers to the warm brown tones. The loose, quick lines suggest it was drawn fast, like a fashion idea. Next, check out Carven, the artist behind this sketch.
