Description: This dynamic French Impressionist painting by Fanch Lel depicts an exciting moment in horse racing at the famous Courses de Marville in Saint-Malo, a historic city in Brittany known for its beautiful beaches and rich culture. The scene captures the intensity of the race as the horses, driven by jockeys in vibrant colors, charge forward. Lel's loose brushwork and use of earthy tones give the painting an expressive energy that mirrors the speed and movement of the event. The background, with flags fluttering, hints at the lively atmosphere of a race day, while the horses are portrayed with power and grace. Perfect for any lover of equestrian art or sporting events, this piece embodies both the elegance and excitement of horse racing, a tradition deeply embedded in French culture.
This original painting would make a striking addition to any collection, particularly for those passionate about equestrian events or French Impressionist works.

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.
