About this work

This sketch shows a woman in a simple black dress with a dark pattern. The dress is sleeveless and hits just above the knees. Her hair is drawn as a small, loose shape on top of her head, and the background is plain and light. The artist signed it "Marie-Louise Carven" in two places, with the word *Croisade* written at the top. The lines are quick and confident, with no extra details.
