About the Item

Title: Brittany Watercolor of Guilvinec Fishing Port with Lighthouse and Washing Line by Robert Lepine (French, 1929 - 2017) Signed: Yes Medium: Watercolor painting on artists paper Size: 11.25 x 15 (height x width) Provenance: From the artists atelier collection, South of France Description: This evocative watercolor captures the historic fishing port of Guilvinec, one of Brittany’s most famous maritime towns. A majestic lighthouse stands tall, guiding sailors home, while weathered fishing boats rest on dry docks for repair. The foreground is strewn with maritime relics—wooden crates, fishing nets, and rusted buoys—adding a sense of nostalgia and authenticity to the scene. The soft light and airy watercolor washes beautifully reflect the sea breeze and rugged charm of coastal France. Key features include: Authentic Brittany Fishing Port: Guilvinec, located in Finistère, is one of the busiest traditional fishing harbors in France, famous for its deep-sea fishermen and picturesque waterfront. Majestic Lighthouse & Maritime Elements: The iconic lighthouse, moored boats, drying fishing nets, and weathered wooden crates create a true-to-life depiction of a working harbor. Richly Textured Composition: The contrast of rustic stone, peeling paint, and sun-bleached wood enhances the realism and storytelling of the piece. Coastal Atmosphere & Nautical Charm: The muted tones and soft light evoke the salty air and hardworking spirit of the Brittany coast. A stunning tribute to the seafaring heritage of France, this painting is perfect for collectors who appreciate maritime history, harbor scenes, and the romance of coastal life.
