About this work

This sketch shows a woman walking sideways, dressed in a loose, sleeveless top and long pants. The top has a scalloped collar and a few small floral details near the hem. Her pants are wide-legged, and she wears a round hat tilted slightly to one side. The drawing is simple but confident, with quick, clean lines and soft shading. The name *Angélica* is written in the corner, likely the model’s name. Next, check out Marie-Louise Carven, the artist behind this sketch.
