About this work

This drawing shows a woman in a sleek black dress with a fitted top and a flared skirt. The dress has a bow at the neck and a row of buttons down the front. Her hair is pulled back, and she’s wearing gloves, heels, and a small smile. The sketch is loose and quick, with bold lines and simple shading. The word *Souris* is written in the corner—maybe it’s the dress name or a note from the artist. If you like this style, check out Carven.
