About this work

This drawing shows a woman in a long, dark green coat with thick stripes. She wears a matching hat and stands against a plain background. To the right, there’s a small sketch of a coat and hat from the back. The artist used quick, loose lines to capture the shape of the coat. The stripes are bold but uneven, giving it a sketchy feel. Look up Marie-Louise Carven next to see more of her work.
