1958
From the collection of Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris
Sologne is a 1958 by Marie-Louise Carven, depicting Belt, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
The painting depicts a woman in a long, orange dress with a brown belt around her waist. The dress has a collar and long sleeves, and the woman's right hand is on her hip. Her left hand is by her side, and she is wearing high heels. To the right of the woman, there is a partial drawing of the same dress without the woman. The background of the painting is beige. The woman's dress is the main focus of the painting, and the artist has used a simple yet effective style to depict it. The use of orange and brown colors gives the painting a warm and earthy feel. The painting is a great example of Marie-Louise Carven's work, and it would be interesting to explore more of her art, particularly her technique of cross-hatching.
Marie-Louise Carven (31 August 1909 – 8 June 2015), born Carmen de Tommaso, was a French fashion designer who founded the house of Carven in 1945.
