Maria Chapdelaine is a 1962 by Marie-Louise Carven, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This drawing, titled "Maria Chapdelaine," presents a woman in a wedding dress, her head bowed and face obscured by a veil. The dress is adorned with numerous small dots, and the woman's hands are clasped together in front of her. The background is a plain white, with some faint lines and scribbles visible around the subject. The overall effect is one of simplicity and elegance, with the focus squarely on the woman and her attire. The use of dots to decorate the dress adds a touch of whimsy and playfulness to the image.
