Signed: Yes
Oil painting on card, unframed

Description: This charming and atmospheric painting by Fanch Lel captures a group of Breton women, dressed in traditional attire, leaving a church after mass in Quimper. The scene is painted in an impressionist style, characterized by loose brushstrokes and a delicate color palette. The figures, depicted with minimal detail, evoke a sense of movement and community as they walk together on the street.
The soft pastel hues of blues, greens, and pinks create a dream-like atmosphere, while the subtle texture of the brushwork adds depth and dimension to the scene. The background features a church in the distance, with its towers faintly visible through the hazy light, adding to the peaceful ambiance of the painting.
Lel’s ability to convey the simplicity and elegance of daily life through impressionist techniques is evident in this work, which invites viewers to immerse themselves in a tranquil moment in time.

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.
