About this work
Overview
Salvador is a fashion sketch created by Carven around 1956. It is a drawing of a woman wearing a dark green plaid outfit and is held at the Museum of Ethnography.
Subject & Meaning
The sketch depicts a woman standing sideways, wearing a matching dark green plaid jacket and pants set. The title 'Salvador' is inscribed in the corner, but the drawing is not a portrait, rather a representation of a fashion design.
Technique & Style
The drawing is executed in a loose and quick style, with some areas filled in with light shading, characteristic of 1950s or 1960s design studio work.
