About this work

This drawing shows a woman in a sleek black dress with a deep V-neck and long, flared sleeves. The dress has a shiny blue satin band at the waist and a mix of gold and blue patterns near the hem. Her hair is short and styled neatly, and she wears dark shoes with a slight heel. The sketch looks like a quick study of a fashion design, with the artist’s handwriting noting details like "satin bleu" and "lamé bleu & or." The paper has a rough, textured feel, and there’s a faint pencil sketch of another dress in the corner. If you like this style, look up lamé.
