Ophélie is a 1955 by Marie-Louise Carven, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
The painting depicts a woman in a white dress with a full skirt, her back to the viewer. Her dark hair is styled in an updo, and she wears long white gloves. The dress features a corseted top adorned with gold accents, and the woman's right arm is extended outward. The background of the painting is a light beige color, which provides a subtle contrast to the woman's white dress. The overall effect is one of elegance and refinement. This painting is reminiscent of the work of Marie-Louise Carven, who was known for her beautiful and intricate drawings.
Marie-Louise Carven (31 August 1909 – 8 June 2015), born Carmen de Tommaso, was a French fashion designer who founded the house of Carven in 1945.
