About this work

This sketch shows a woman in a long, simple dress with a belt and high heels. Her hair is pulled back, and she’s holding her hands near her chest. To the right, there’s a smaller drawing of just the dress, like a pattern or a separate idea. The name *Minerve* is written at the top—maybe it’s the woman’s name or a nickname. The drawing looks quick, almost like a fashion sketch. Next, check out Marie-Louise Carven to see more of her work.
