About this work

This drawing shows a woman in a sleek black dress with short sleeves and a dropped waist. Her hair is cut in a bob, and she’s wearing long gloves and heels. To the left, there’s a sketch of a dress with thin straps and a fitted shape. The artist signed it “Madeleine & Madeleine” and wrote notes about the dress material—*crèpe satin*—and embroidery details. Want to see more? Look up cross-hatching.
