About this work

This drawing shows a woman in a bright yellow coat, holding a small horn in one hand. Her other hand rests on her hip, and she wears simple shoes. The background is plain, letting the figure stand out. The hand-written text in the corner says "Corne d'or," which means "gold horn" in French. The drawing looks loose and quick, like a sketch. Next, look up Marie-Louise Carven to see more of her work.
