Description:
This vibrant oil painting by French artist Fanch Lel captures the lively harbour of Roscoff, a picturesque port town on the coast of Brittany known for its historic buildings, seafood markets, and nautical charm. Dated 1992, the composition features a row of traditional Breton houses with dark roofs and white facades stretching along the quay, crowned by a tall lighthouse standing watch over the scene.
In the foreground, colourful fishing boats—painted in pops of turquoise, crimson, yellow, and lilac—bob gently on the water, their reflections rippling below. Lel’s use of lively, impressionistic brushwork and a cool, coastal palette gives the scene energy while retaining its tranquil seaside charm.
This piece will appeal to collectors of French coastal art, harbour scenes, and lovers of Brittany’s storied port towns. A standout work that celebrates light, colour, and the simple beauty of life by the sea.

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.
