About this work
Overview
Jaspé is a work created by Carven around 1959, currently held at the Museum of Ethnography.
Subject & Meaning
The image depicts two women from behind, wearing fitted dresses with full skirts. One woman's dress features a green top and a striped skirt, while the other wears a simple white dress.
Technique & Style
The artist employed loose, expressive lines to convey the folds and movement of the fabric. The dresses are rendered with a sense of layered texture, achieved through the use of hatching and line work.
