Fishing Boats On French Beach With Lighthouse And Sea Coastal Marine

Title: Fishing Boats On French Beach With Lighthouse And Sea Coastal Marine
by Fanch Lel
Signed: Bottom right corner
Size: 19.5 x 22.75 inches (height x width)
Oil painting on board, unframed
Condition: Good overall condition. Minor surface wear and edge scuffs consistent with age.
Provenance: All the paintings we have for sale by this artist have come from the artists estate and have had no previous owners at all.
Description:
This lively coastal oil painting by Fanch Lel, signed and dated 1990, captures a charming seaside scene with three brightly painted fishing boats resting on the sand at low tide. In the distance, a lighthouse stands watch on a rocky outcrop, its red-capped beacon contrasting against the pale grey sky and choppy turquoise waters.
Executed with confident brushwork and a keen eye for maritime colour, this painting blends soft, overcast tones with vivid pops of red, blue, and orange across the boat hulls. The textured rocks, loosely rendered shoreline, and atmospheric sky lend the piece a dynamic yet calm feel—conveying both movement and stillness typical of harbour life.
The composition is balanced and engaging, with the boats drawing...

Original Abstract Oil Paintings for Sale on 1stDibs
With original abstract oil paintings, bring audacious experiments with color and textures to your living room, dining room or home office.
Whether they're large or small, abstract paintings will stand out in your space, encouraging conversation and introducing a museum-like atmosphere that’s welcoming and conducive to creating memorable gatherings.
Abstract art has origins in 19th-century Europe, but it came into its own as a significant movement during the 20th century. Early practitioners of abstraction included Wassily Kandinsky, although painters were exploring nonfigurative art prior to the influential Russian artist’s efforts, which were inspired by music and religion. Abstract painters endeavored to create works that didn’t focus on the outside world’s conventional subjects, and even when artists depicted realistic subjects, they worked in an abstract mode to do so.
In 1940s-era New York City, a group of painters working in the abstract mode created radical work that looked to European avant-garde artists as well as to the art of ancient cultures, prioritizing improvisation, immediacy and direct personal expression. While they were never formally affiliated with one another, we know them today as Abstract Expressionists.
The male contingent of the Abstract Expressionists, which includes Jackson Pollock, Willem de Kooning and Robert Motherwell, is frequently cited in discussing leading figures of this internationally influential postwar art movement. However, the women of Abstract Expressionism, such as Helen Frankenthaler, Lee Krasner, Joan Mitchell and others, were equally involved in the art world of the time. Sexism, family obligations and societal pressures contributed to a long history of their being overlooked, but the female Abstract Expressionists experimented vigorously, developed their own style and produced significant bodies of work.
When you've found the work(s) you'd like to bring into your home, think about how you want to arrange the art. If you’re working with a small living space, a colorful, oversize work can create depth in a given room, but there isn’t any need to overwhelm your interior with a sprawling pièce de résistance. Colorful abstractions of any size can pop against a white wall in your living room, but if you’re working with a colored backdrop, you may wish to stick to colors that complement the decor that is already in the space. Alternatively, let your painting make a statement on its own, regardless of its surroundings, or group it, gallery-style, with other works.
On 1stDibs, you’ll find a wide range of original abstract oil paintings along with a guide on how to arrange your wonderful new wall art.
