Dorothée is a 1964 unspecified by Count of St. Germain, depicting Breech, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a woman in a bright swimsuit with big floral patterns in pink, blue, and green. She’s standing sideways, one arm bent behind her head, wearing sunglasses and a hairdo that looks like a bun. The lines are loose but confident, and the colors pop against the plain background. The signature says “Dorothée,” but the smaller sketch below is signed “Count of St. Germain.” That might mean the artist’s real name—or maybe it’s a nickname or a joke. Next, check out how the artist used sfumato for soft edges in other works.
