About this work

This sketch shows a woman in a simple, loose coat with big pockets and a high collar. She’s wearing a headscarf and standing with one foot slightly forward. Next to her is a flat drawing of the same coat, folded to show the back. The coat’s clean lines and lack of detail make it look modern. The artist signed it "Simoun" in the corner.

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