About this work

This sketch shows a woman in a sleek, knee-length dress with a bold pink and black pattern. Her hair is styled in a loose updo, and she wears simple earrings. The lines are loose but confident, with quick brushstrokes that suggest movement. The title, *Montagnes Rocheuses*, hints at something unexpected—this drawing isn’t a landscape but a fashion sketch. The artist focused on the dress’s shape and texture, using bold colors to make it stand out. Want to see more? Check out Marie-Louise Carven, the artist behind this sketch.
