'Week-end' is a 1949 by Marie-Louise Carven, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This drawing depicts a woman in a blue and white plaid coat, with her right hand raised to her forehead. The coat is long and features a collar, buttons, and a belt around the waist. The woman's left hand is on her hip, and she appears to be wearing a dress or skirt underneath the coat. The drawing is done in a simple style, with bold lines and minimal shading. The background is a plain beige color, which helps to focus attention on the woman and her coat. The drawing's simplicity and focus on the woman's clothing suggest that it may be a fashion illustration. To learn more about the artist's style and technique, you can look up Marie-Louise Carven.
