Title: French Impressionist Oil Painting of a Lighthouse at Finistère Nord
By Fanch Lel (French b. 1930)
Size: 4.5 x 6.25 inches (height x width)
Signed: Yes
Oil painting on cardboard, unframed
Condition: The painting is in good condition.
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, textured painting by Fanch Lel captures the serene beauty of a lighthouse perched on the rugged coastline of Finistère Nord, Brittany, at sunset. The composition features a prominent lighthouse standing tall on rocky cliffs, illuminated by the golden hues of the setting sun. In the background, sailboats are visible on the glistening blue waters, their sails catching the fading light, evoking a sense of peaceful maritime life.
The artist's use of a warm palette of oranges, reds, and ochres brings life to the rocky shoreline, while the cool tones of the sea and sky offer a calming contrast. The rich texture in the brushstrokes adds depth and movement, mimicking the natural ruggedness of the coastline and the gentle rolling waves. This piece evokes feelings of nostalgia and admiration for the timeless maritime landscape of Brittany, a region known for its dramatic seascapes and picturesque lighthouses.
The inclusion of a lighthouse is significant, as these structures have historically served not only as navigational aids but also as symbols of guidance, protection, and hope for sailors. The lighthouse depicted here is an iconic representation of the French coastal experience, often seen along the northern shores of Brittany.
Perfect for collectors of nautical art or those with an affinity for coastal scenes, this painting offers both visual beauty and a rich connection to the maritime traditions of Brittany.

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.
