About this work

This drawing shows a woman in a sleek black dress with a high collar, long sleeves, and a belted waist. Her skirt flares slightly at the knees, and she stands with one hand in her pocket. To the right, there’s a simple sketch of the same dress from the back, showing the back zipper and gathered skirt. The artist signed it "Sifflet" in the corner, which might be a nickname or a brand name. The style looks polished and practical, like something from the mid-20th century. If you like this kind of fashion sketch, look up womenswear.

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