Title: French Impressionist Painting of Beached Fishing Boats on Dark Card
by Fanche Lel
Size: 8.25 inches (height) x 10.5 inches (width)
Oil painting on card, unframed
Condition: The painting is in good condition, with minor signs of handling at the edges.
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 evocative gouache and acrylic painting by French artist Fanch Lel captures a quiet coastal moment with several fishing boats resting on land, surrounded by hazy cottages and dense trees.
Painted on rich black card, the colours are unusually vivid, with a frosty palette of pale turquoise, lavender, and slate blue lending the scene a misty, dreamlike atmosphere. The rough texture of the brushwork adds energy and depth to the otherwise tranquil subject matter.
Lel’s characteristic looseness is evident here, with boats outlined only by suggestion—yet somehow utterly convincing. There's a strong sense of place, perhaps a familiar Breton harbour, where the boats wait patiently for the next tide.
This is a striking standalone piece, but it would also pair beautifully with other marine or village scenes from Lel’s collection.

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.
