'Ski de Printemps' is a 1949 by Carven, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a person in a loose, flowing pose, wearing a dark top with rolled-up sleeves, gray pants, and chunky shoes. Their arms are stretched out, and they’re holding what look like skis—one in each hand. The background is just a few quick brushstrokes in blue and gray, with small details like a flower and a coin scattered around. The title, *"Ski de Printemps"* (which means "spring skiing"), hints at a playful twist—skis in a season when you’d normally see them. The sketch feels quick and loose, like it was drawn fast to capture movement. Next, check out Carven, the artist behind this sketch.
These delicate ink-on-paper drawings capture the quiet poetry of everyday things: pinecones, reeds, apples.
