About this work

This sketch shows a woman from behind, wearing a long dress with a checkered pattern in blues and grays. Her arms are outstretched, and she’s holding what looks like a small object. She’s also wearing a dark hat that covers her hair. The title *Train bleu* is written in the corner, which might hint at something about trains or color. The drawing is simple but full of quick, confident lines. If you like this style, check out Marie-Louise Carven.
