Description: This captivating piece showcases an abstract depiction of the bustling harbor at Saint-Malo, a historic French city known for its seafaring heritage. The scene captures the industrial side of the port, highlighting cranes and fishing boats set against a backdrop of warm oranges, yellows, and blues. The artist’s loose, expressive brushstrokes create a vibrant, glowing ambiance, emphasizing the dynamic movement of the harbor. The composition is alive with the interplay of color and light, with the cool blue tones of the boats contrasting against the sun-drenched hues of the harbor.
This painting conveys both the warmth of a coastal town and the energy of an active working port, combining the romanticism of the sea with the industrious spirit of maritime life. Saint-Malo's towering cranes are visible, serving as a reminder of the town’s robust history in shipbuilding and trade, while the delicate lines of the boats suggest the personal stories of local fishermen.
A perfect piece for lovers of maritime art and French coastal scenes, the abstract yet recognizable forms give the work a contemporary edge while maintaining a traditional subject.

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.
