About this work

This drawing shows a woman in a dark blue dress and hat, walking with one hand holding a small object. Her shoes have a slight heel, and the dress has three visible buttons down the front. The lines are loose and quick, giving a sketchy, unfinished feel. The name *Noémi* is written in the top-right corner, possibly the woman’s name. The drawing looks like it was made to show off a fashion design rather than a finished portrait. If you like this style, check out Marie-Louise Carven.
