Watteau is a 1958 by Carven, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a woman in a simple, dark blue dress with a fitted bodice and a flared skirt. Her hair is short and wavy, and she’s standing with one leg slightly forward. Next to her is a quick outline of a chair, almost like a rough draft. The drawing looks like it was made fast—just a few bold lines and quick color strokes. The artist didn’t bother with details like background or facial features, just the shape and movement of the body. If you like this style, check out cross-hatching next.
These delicate ink-on-paper drawings capture the quiet poetry of everyday things: pinecones, reeds, apples.
