About the Item

Title: French Impressionist Oil Painting of Boats and Lighthouse on a Rocky Shore By Fanch Lel (French b. 1930) Size: 9.5 x 7 inches (height x width) Signed: Yes Oil painting on board, unframed Condition: The painting is in good condition, with minor signs of aging. 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 vibrant French Impressionist oil painting captures a serene coastal scene featuring several small boats anchored in calm waters, with a lighthouse standing proudly atop a grassy, rocky shoreline. The painting is characterized by soft, pastel tones and loose, expressive brushstrokes, typical of Impressionist works. The lighthouse, painted in shades of pale blue and topped with a green dome, overlooks a charming small house nestled along the ridge. The reflection of the boats and shoreline in the rippling water creates a sense of tranquility, while the sky is filled with wisps of cloud, gently illuminated by the light of the sun. Fanch Lel skillfully conveys the peaceful atmosphere of this coastal retreat, with the lively brushwork and delicate use of color making this piece a striking example of mid-20th-century French coastal painting.

French Harbour Oil Painting of Boats Lighthouse and Rocky Shoreline at Low Tide
By Fanch Lel
Located in Cirencester, Gloucestershire
Title: French Harbour Oil Painting of Boats Lighthouse and Rocky Shoreline at Low Tide By Fanch Lel Signed: Yes Size: 13 x 16 inches (height x width) Oil painting on board, unframed Condition: The painting is in good condition with expressive texture throughout; minor surface wear and edge scuffing present. 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 expressive 1986 oil on board titled Marée (meaning “Tide”) captures a dramatic moment along the French coast, where the sky glows with streaks of yellow and rose as the tide pulls gently from the harbour. A lighthouse stands at the center of the scene, surrounded by whitewashed buildings and small moored fishing boats bobbing in the shallows. Painted by French artist Fanch Lel, this work features dynamic brushwork and a moody, storm-washed sky layered in shades of slate grey, lavender, and warm amber. The palette evokes the fleeting golden hour, as the low sun reflects off wet rocks and waterlogged docks. The boats in the foreground are rendered in deep rust, black, and marine blue, giving the composition a grounded, tactile quality. The piece has strong visual depth: a rocky foreground with tethered boats...
