About this work

This sketch shows a woman in a bright green dress with a floral pattern on the skirt. The dress has a fitted bodice with puffed sleeves and a bow at the waist. Below her, there’s a smaller drawing of the same dress from the back. The artist’s loose, quick lines make the sketch feel lively, almost like a fashion sketch. The name "Sisley" is written in the corner, which might be the dress’s name or a note. Next, check out Marie-Louise Carven, the artist behind this drawing.
