'Corail' is a 1951 by Marie-Louise Carven, depicting Coral, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a person in a long coat and hat, standing sideways. The coat has thick stripes and a belt, while one hand rests in a pocket. The lines are quick and loose, with some shading to show folds in the fabric. The signature reads "Carven," which matches the artist’s name. The drawing feels like a quick study, maybe for a fashion design. Next, look up Marie-Louise Carven to see more of her work.
