About this work

This sketch shows a woman in a loose, purple coat with wide lapels and gray trousers. She’s holding a small black bag in one hand and wearing beige heels. The lines are simple and confident, with soft shading for the coat’s folds. The artist signed it “Rosée” and “Carven” at the top and bottom. The style feels modern but not tied to any obvious art movement. Next, check out Marie-Louise Carven.
