About this work

This drawing shows a woman in a dark blue dress with a wide skirt and a matching jacket. She’s wearing a green hat tilted to one side and holding a cigarette in her right hand. The lines are simple and clean, with a light pencil sketch style. The handwritten note says “Champs Elysées,” which was a famous street in Paris. The dress looks like something from the 1960s, with a sleek, modern cut. If you like this style, look up Marie-Louise Carven.
