Cuivre is a 1958 by Marie-Louise Carven, depicting Button, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This drawing depicts a woman wearing a copper-colored coat with a collar and buttons. Her hands are tucked into the pockets, and she has short hair. The coat is knee-length and has a loose fit. The woman is facing to the right, with her head turned slightly towards the viewer. The drawing is rendered in a simple style, with bold lines and minimal shading. The copper color of the coat is the dominant feature of the image, and it gives the overall effect a warm and earthy tone. The simplicity of the drawing makes it easy to focus on the subject, and the use of a single color creates a sense of cohesion. You might also want to explore more of Marie-Louise Carven's work.
