About this work

The painting depicts a woman in a plaid coat with a bow at the back, standing with her hand on her face. She is wearing a hat and heels. The background is plain, and the overall style is simple and elegant. The woman's pose and expression suggest a sense of contemplation or thoughtfulness. The use of a plaid pattern on her coat adds a touch of sophistication and refinement to the overall image. This drawing is reminiscent of the work of Marie-Louise Carven.
