1956
From the collection of Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris
Amphore is a 1956 by Marie-Louise Carven, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a woman in a simple, flowing dress with short sleeves and a fitted waist. Her hair is pulled back, and she’s mid-motion, one arm raised as if dancing or balancing. The dress is light blue-gray, and the lines are loose but confident, with quick strokes for the fabric’s drape. The title *Amphore* is written in the corner—maybe a nod to the shape of the dress or a personal code for the artist. The drawing feels quick, like a first idea rather than a finished work.
