Dominant colour
'Sirène' is a 1949 by Carven, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This is a simple black-and-white drawing of a woman in a long, flowing dress. Her arms are raised slightly, and the dress has a loose, draped look with a few small gold shapes near the waist. The background is plain, and the whole image feels quick and sketchy, like it was drawn fast. The name "Carven" is signed in the corner, which might mean this drawing is by that artist. The gold shapes on the dress stand out against the black, adding a tiny bit of detail. Look up Carven to see more of their work.
These delicate ink-on-paper drawings capture the quiet poetry of everyday things: pinecones, reeds, apples.
