1953
From the collection of Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris
Young is a 1953 by Marie-Louise Carven, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
This sketch shows a woman walking, dressed in a sleeveless white top and a green skirt with leafy patterns. Her hair is pulled back, and she wears simple shoes. The lines are loose and quick, with light shading for shadows. The green skirt has a rough, textured look, almost like vines or leaves. The drawing feels fresh and unfinished, like a quick study. Check out the technique: cross-hatching to see how artists build texture with lines.
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.
