About this work

This drawing shows a woman in a long, bright green coat with a high collar and three buttons down the front. The coat is loose but structured, with clean lines and a slight flare at the bottom. Her hands are tucked into pockets, and she’s wearing simple shoes. The artist used bold outlines and flat colors, keeping it simple and stylish. The signature in the corner reads "Mouski," but the artist’s name is Marie-Louise Carven. If you like this style, look up Marie-Louise Carven.
