Pantomime is a 1957 by Marie-Louise Carven, depicting Sleeveles, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
The painting features a woman in a sleeveless dress with a plaid pattern, standing with her left hand on her hip and her right arm extended. She has short hair and is wearing high heels. The dress has buttons down the front and a collar. To the right of the woman is a small drawing of a dress form wearing a dress with a bow at the waist. The background of the painting is white, with a thin brown border around the edges. The overall style of the painting is simple and elegant, with clean lines and minimal detail. The painting is a charming portrayal of a woman in a stylish dress, and it would be interesting to learn more about the artist, Marie-Louise Carven.
