Description:
This textured and atmospheric painting by Fanch Lel depicts two boats resting on a tidal flat, their vibrant sails catching a soft light. The boats, painted in shades of deep blue and highlighted with bold strokes of red and orange, contrast beautifully against the muted, earthy tones of the shoreline. The yellow and red sails appear almost translucent, capturing a gentle breeze as they stand against a sky filled with swirling, expressive brushstrokes of blue and gray. Lel’s use of color and texture brings a dynamic quality to the otherwise calm scene, as the boats seem poised for the tide's return. Reflections of the sails ripple across the shallow water, adding depth and movement to the foreground.
Subtle circles across the canvas surface, possibly due to the painting’s age or exposure, add a unique, aged quality that enhances its authenticity and charm. The background is painted in muted greens and grays, suggesting distant shorelines or low-lying hills under a cloudy sky, adding to the scene’s sense of tranquility and anticipation.

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.

The Sea, boats. Oil on canvas, Figurative, Landscape, Marine, Polish artist
By Magdalena Spasowicz
Located in Warsaw, PL
20th century figurative landscape oil on canvas painting by Polish artist Magdalena Spasowicz. Artwork is in classic style, it resembles impressionism. Marine landscapes, seascapes, boats, harbors are motifs in Spasowicz's art to which she often comes back. Composition is painted with wide brush strokes. Colors are muted with stronger accent of red in bottom right corner.
MAGDALENA SPASOWICZ Studied painting under prof. Jan Cybis and graphic arts with prof. Tadeusz Kulisiewicz at the Academy of Fine Arts in Warsaw. She received her diploma in 1953. Her works have been presented in numerous exhibitions in Poland and abroad, among others in Warsaw, London, New York, Bratislava, Washington, Moscow, Berlin, Budapest, and are to be found in private and public collections around the world. In 2017 two individual exhibition of the artists took place - at the Regional Museum in Kozienice Palace and at the Museum of Western Mazowsze in Zyrardow. Magdalena Spasowicz has been spending every single moment on painting for many years now. Most of her paintings are monochromatically coloured landscapes, of places where eye cheers soul with a sight close to heart, known and well remembered. French painting of Pissarro and Utrillo has been a very important inspiration for Magdalena Spasowicz. A desire to still-frame every moment when the artist meets Nature and beloved places is an imperative, which obliges to come back to canvas and paint, paint with a total devotion.
