About this work

This sketch shows a woman in a fitted red dress with a floral pattern. The dress has a deep V-neck and a flared skirt that falls just above her knees. Her hair is pulled back neatly, and she wears small earrings. The name "Framboise" is written at the top—it might mean "raspberry," matching the dress’s color. The drawing is loose and quick, with some pencil lines visible under the paint. Next, check out Marie-Louise Carven, the artist behind this sketch.
