Lichen is a 1958 by Marie-Louise Carven, depicting Womenswear, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
The painting depicts a woman dressed in a green outfit, consisting of a jacket and a skirt. The woman's face is not visible, and her body is turned slightly to the left. The background of the painting is a light beige color. The woman's outfit appears to be made of a smooth, possibly silk or cotton, material. The jacket has a collar and a belt around the waist, while the skirt is knee-length and fitted. The overall style of the outfit suggests a mid-20th-century fashion. The painting is a detailed and realistic representation of the woman's outfit, with attention to texture and folds in the fabric. The artist's use of color and shading creates a sense of depth and dimensionality in the image. To learn more about the artist's work, you can explore the art of Marie-Louise Carven.
