This drawing shows a woman in a sleek black dress with a long coat draped over her arm. She’s wearing a wide-brimmed hat, dark stockings, and pointed shoes. One hand holds a cane, and the other rests on her hip. The background is plain, so all the focus is on her sharp outfit and confident pose. The artist signed it “Madeleine & Madeleine”—that’s the name of the studio, not one person. The address at the bottom points to Paris, where this was likely made in 1924.
