About this work

This drawing shows a woman in a long, dark blue coat with a high collar and big pockets. She’s wearing a light pink top underneath and simple black shoes. To the right, there’s a quick sketch of the coat’s back view, showing its shape and buttons. The handwriting in the corner says "Strogoff" with the number 86, which might be a code or reference. The loose, sketchy lines make it feel like a quick fashion study rather than a finished portrait. If you like this style, check out more work by Carven.
