About this work

This sketch shows a woman in a dark, fitted jacket and a long, flowing navy skirt. Her hair is pulled back, and she wears small earrings and gloves. The jacket has three visible buttons, and the skirt flares slightly at the bottom. The artist signed it “Saint Jean de Luz,” which might be the dress’s name or the place it was drawn. The lines are loose but confident, with quick strokes for the skirt’s movement. Check out Carven to see more of this artist’s work.
