About this work

This sketch shows a woman in a loose, flowing dress with a wide neckline and draped sleeves. She wears a red headband and holds a bouquet of brown flowers in one hand. The background is plain, letting the clothes and her pose stand out. The artist signed it "Fumée" at the top, and the bottom text reads "Madeleine & Madeleine" with an address in Paris. The drawing looks quick and loose, like a fashion sketch. Look up Madeleine & Madeleine next—they were a real design duo.
