Title: Vibrant French Seascape with Blue Fishing Boats, Seagulls and Evening Sky
by Fanch Lel (French b. 1930)
Signed: Yes
Size: 8.25 inches (height) x 10.75 inches (width)
Oil painting on card, unframed
Condition: The painting is in good condition, with some light discolouration near the edges, 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 vivid and expressive harbour scene by Fanch Lel captures three small fishing boats resting peacefully on still water beneath a striking sky. The boats, painted in rich blues and deep browns, float against a backdrop of pale pink clouds and layered strokes of lavender, aqua, and cobalt, reflecting beautifully in the glassy surface below. The bold use of color and rhythm of the brushwork gives the painting an uplifting, almost musical quality.
The sky, rendered in wide, swirling strokes, suggests a dreamy dusk or early morning light, with seagulls soaring above the horizon. Lel’s energetic yet controlled application of paint evokes a scene that is both joyful and contemplative—an ode to the simple beauty of maritime life.
Signed and dated 1993, this piece is a vibrant example of Fanch Lel’s modern impressionist style. It would appeal to collectors of coastal and nautical art, and those who favour bold color palettes and expressive technique. A striking accent piece for both contemporary and classic interiors.

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.
