'Vesta' is a 1949 by Carven, depicting Womenswear, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
The image depicts a drawing of a woman wearing a black dress with a matching hat and a yellow scarf. The woman is shown from the side, with her head turned slightly towards the viewer. Her arms are bent at the elbows, and her hands are clasped together in front of her. The drawing is rendered in a simple yet elegant style, with clean lines and minimal shading. The woman's face is not visible, but her posture and attire suggest a sense of sophistication and refinement. The drawing is a beautiful example of Carven's work, and it would be interesting to learn more about the artist's technique and style by exploring the subject of cross-hatching.
These delicate ink-on-paper drawings capture the quiet poetry of everyday things: pinecones, reeds, apples.
