Puck is a 1956 by Marie-Louise Carven, depicting Womenswear, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
The painting depicts a woman walking to the right, wearing a long plaid coat with a wide collar and large pockets. She has a white hat and white gloves, and her legs are visible beneath the coat. The background of the painting is a light beige color. The woman's outfit appears to be from the mid-20th century, with a classic style that was popular during that time period. The use of plaid and the design of the coat suggest a sophisticated and elegant look. The painting is a beautiful example of fashion illustration, and it would be interesting to learn more about the artist's use of cross-hatching and stippling techniques.
