Jan Bart is a 1963 by Marie-Louise Carven, depicting Breech, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a person in a side view, wearing a white shirt with rolled-up sleeves and green pants. Their hair is pulled back under a head covering, and they’re standing with one hand on their hip. The lines are loose and quick, with a few bold strokes for the pants and shoes. The artist signed it “Jean Bart” in the top-right corner—likely a name for the person drawn, not the artist. The drawing feels more like a quick fashion study than a finished portrait. If you like this style, check out Marie-Louise Carven, the artist who made it.
Marie-Louise Carven (31 August 1909 – 8 June 2015), born Carmen de Tommaso, was a French fashion designer who founded the house of Carven in 1945.
