Title: French Impressionist Oil Painting of Various Figures Strolling in Dinan
By Fanch Lel (French b. 1930)
Size: 3.5 x 5.5 inches (height x width)
Signed: Yes
Oil painting on cardboard, unframed

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 charming artwork, titled "En flânant à Dinan," by Fanch Lel, captures a bustling street scene in the historical town of Dinan, located in Brittany, France. The painting depicts a group of figures casually strolling through the streets, the distinct architecture of Dinan serving as a backdrop. The buildings feature traditional half-timbered structures, instantly recognizable in the old town. The figures are dressed in casual clothing, suggesting a modern yet timeless atmosphere. The scene seems to exude a casual energy of daily life in this medieval town, often known for its well-preserved city walls, cobbled streets, and quaint squares.
The artist's use of bold, yet impressionistic strokes suggests movement and liveliness. The composition is rich with a vibrant color palette, with blues, purples, and earthy tones capturing the mood of the town's atmosphere. The interaction between the figures and their surroundings creates a dynamic piece that pulls the viewer into the bustling environment.
This painting would appeal to those with a passion for French towns, and particularly those with a fondness for Dinan's medieval charm, making it an ideal piece for a Francophile or anyone who appreciates European travel. It is a lovely representation of a moment of leisure, with both architectural and human elements blending together to evoke a sense of timelessness.
Dinan, a town in the Côtes-d'Armor department, is known for its medieval ramparts, half-timbered houses, and the stunning view from its clock tower. This town continues to attract visitors for its historical charm, making this painting a wonderful tribute to its beauty.

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.
