Description:
This lively gouache painting by French artist Fanch Lel, dated 1993, captures a charming coastal town with boats at low tide and twin lighthouses standing watch at the harbour mouth. The scene is infused with movement, from the rippling sea to the dynamic sky, all rendered in energetic strokes of sky blue, ochre, soft pink, and white.
In the foreground, two white boats rest on the sandy shore, their bold outlines and reflected shadows anchoring the composition. Behind them, clusters of pastel-toned buildings lead the eye toward the water, where more boats drift gently along the calm harbour. The two lighthouses—capped in green and red—add structure and coastal character, reminiscent of Brittany’s seaside towns like Camaret or Concarneau.
Lel’s expressive use of gouache adds richness and spontaneity, making this an ideal piece for collectors of nautical scenes, lovers of French harbour towns, or anyone seeking a painting full of colour and coastal charm.

Fanch Lel
Fanch Lel’s paintings, primarily executed in oil and gouache, evoke the serenity and charm of the French countryside, with a particular emphasis on the region's coastal and rural beauty. His works often highlight iconic landmarks such as Mont Saint-Michel and capture the essence of Breton culture with his portrayals of the region’s people and customs. Lel's self-taught, plein air approach allows for dynamic compositions that reflect the atmospheric light and textures of the region, giving his pieces a timeless appeal. His choice of soft, muted colors and rich textures brings a sense of nostalgia and quietude to each painting, making them a perfect addition to collections that appreciate mid-century French art. A member of the Société des Artistes Indépendants and a Knight of the Palmes Académiques, Fanch Lel's works have been featured in numerous exhibitions across France, including in Paris, Avranches, Dinard, and Pont-Aven, to name a few. His art has been highly sought after by collectors for decades.
