'Zambo' is a 1951 by Carven, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a person in a wide-legged suit with bold lapels and decorative stitching down the front. They’re wearing a wide-brimmed hat and one arm is raised, as if mid-gesture. The lines are loose and confident, with quick strokes for the fabric folds. The word *"Zambo"* is scrawled in the corner—likely the title. The drawing feels like a quick study, not a polished work. If you like this sketchy style, look up cross-hatching next.
These delicate ink-on-paper drawings capture the quiet poetry of everyday things: pinecones, reeds, apples.
