Subject & Meaning
The artwork depicts a woman wearing a bright blue, button-front coat with a pointed collar and pockets, paired with a matching skirt. Her poised stance and neat hairstyle suggest a sense of formality or professionalism. A secondary, simplified rear view of the coat accompanies the main figure, potentially emphasizing the garment's design.
Technique & Style
Characterized by clean, bold lines and flat, unshaded colors, the drawing exhibits a minimalist approach, focusing on outline and shape rather than depth or texture.
History & Provenance
Created circa 1959, the work is part of the collection at the Museum of Ethnography. Handwritten annotations 'Nogor' and '60' are present, with '60' possibly indicating the year of creation or an internal code.
