Description:
This pastel-hued oil painting by French artist Fanch Lel presents a serene coastal harbour, with fishing boats moored gently on still waters, framed by a glowing sky and distant lighthouse. Painted in the artist’s signature impressionist style, this charming maritime scene balances structural detail with a poetic softness, evoking the stillness of early morning or late afternoon along the French coast.
The composition is anchored by two white boats with red and teal accents, reflected clearly in the shimmering water below. The sky is rendered in broad, atmospheric strokes of soft pinks, blues, and creams—creating a dreamlike palette that harmonizes with the palette of the sea. A lighthouse rises in the background, acting as both a focal point and a symbolic element of guidance and solitude.
Lel’s confident brushwork and broken color technique create a rich sense of texture and movement. Despite its impressionist looseness, the work captures architectural features and nautical forms with clarity, placing it firmly in the tradition of post-war French maritime art.
This painting is perfect for collectors of seascapes and harbour scenes, as well as those with an appreciation for coastal villages and nautical charm. Its calming palette and inviting composition make it well-suited for both classic and contemporary interiors.

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.
