About this work

This sketch shows a woman in a loose, knee-length dress with blue floral splashes on a light background. Her arms are crossed, and she stands confidently against a plain beige sheet. The lines are simple, focusing on shape over detail. The word *Bleuêt* is written in the corner—likely the name of this outfit or fabric. The artist used quick, clean strokes to capture the dress’s flow. Next, check out Marie-Louise Carven.
