About this work

This drawing features a woman in a sleeveless dress, with her hair styled in an updo. The dress has a V-neckline and is buttoned up the front, with a slight slit at the bottom. The woman's left leg is visible, with her foot pointed downward. The drawing is rendered in a simple yet elegant style, with clean lines and minimal shading. The overall effect is one of understated sophistication, with the focus on the woman's pose and attire. The Museum of Ethnography holds this drawing, titled "Tubéreuse" by Carven.
