About this work

This sketch shows a woman in a loose, knee-length dress with a fitted bodice. The dress has a swirly, abstract pattern in browns and grays. She’s wearing a small hat and holding her left wrist with her right hand. The name *"Isabella"* is scrawled in the corner, but we don’t know who she is. The drawing looks like it was done quickly, with bold lines and simple shading. If you like this style, check out Marie-Louise Carven.
