Title: French Watercolor of Concarneau Port & Ville Close with Fishermen
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:
Titled Concarneau, Le Port et la Ville Close, this intricately detailed maritime watercolor transports the viewer to the historic port of Concarneau in Brittany, a region renowned for its deep fishing heritage and fortified coastal towns. The artist masterfully blends rich blues, warm ochres, and muted stone tones to bring this bustling harbor scene to life.
On the left side, tall-masted sailing ships with striking rust-red and soft grey sails rest in the calm waters, their reflections shimmering with movement. The composition is balanced by the iconic Ville Close in the background, its fortified walls standing proudly against the sea, adorned with fluttering flags that hint at the region’s long maritime history.
In the foreground, two Breton fishermen in traditional dress are engaged in a quiet moment along the quay, their fishing nets and baskets scattered around them as they take a well-earned rest. The artist’s skillful use of expressive pen work and delicate watercolor washes creates a sense of nostalgia, evoking the era when Concarneau thrived as a major fishing port.
This charming and atmospheric piece beautifully captures the essence of Breton coastal life, making it an ideal addition to any collection celebrating French maritime history, seafaring culture, or traditional European townscapes.
