About this work

This drawing shows a woman from the back, wearing a long pink dress with a high collar and bows on the sleeves. She’s holding a small object in one hand, and there’s a simple sketch of a man’s coat on the right side. The lines are loose and quick, with flat colors and no shading. The artist signed it "Sully" in the corner, but the name might not match the woman’s identity. The style looks playful, like a quick fashion sketch rather than a detailed portrait. If you like this kind of simple, bold drawing, look up Carven next—they’re known for similar clean, graphic styles.

Carven

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