About this work

This drawing shows a woman in a sleek black dress with sharp angles and a dropped waist. Her hair is short and smooth, and she wears dark lipstick. One hand rests on her hip, the other holds a small object. Next to her is a folded black fabric swatch with a few loose threads. The artist signed it "Sweet home" and added the shop name *Madeleine & Madeleine* with a Paris address. The loose swatch hints this might be a fashion sketch. Look up Madeleine & Madeleine to see more of their bold 1920s designs.
