Description:
This small yet evocative Impressionist oil painting captures a peaceful rural village scene set within the Breton countryside. The artist, Fanch Lel, uses a subdued and earthy palette, punctuated by soft yellows, greens, and blues, to depict a pair of cottages nestled among trees. The loose and textured brushwork lends an atmospheric feel to the piece, as the soft blending of colors mimics the dappled light filtering through the trees. The composition is framed by a gentle hillside, creating a harmonious and calm landscape. This tranquil village scene encapsulates the artist's signature style of capturing quiet rural life in Brittany. Dated to around the early 2000s, the work is a beautiful snapshot of a peaceful village, rendered in a characteristic Impressionist style.

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.
