Description:
This richly textured oil painting by Fanch Lel presents a vivid impression of the historic French city of Mâcon, located in the Burgundy region along the Saône River. Dominating the skyline are the twin spires of Église Saint-Pierre, one of the city’s most recognizable architectural landmarks.
Painted with bold impasto and a palette knife technique, Lel’s interpretation of Mâcon offers a vibrant and expressive view across the water, where light dances across the river’s surface in silvery blues, lavender greys, and dashes of orange and yellow. The right-hand side of the composition is anchored by a cluster of tall trees, rendered with bold strokes of mint green, aqua, and violet, creating dynamic contrast against the soft geometry of the buildings.
Mâcon, known for its Romanesque and Gothic architecture, vineyards, and riverfront charm, provides a timeless subject for this post-impressionist landscape. Lel’s emphasis on form, texture, and mood gives this piece a modern edge, appealing to collectors who appreciate both urban architecture and expressive landscape painting.
An excellent addition for those drawn to French regional scenes, historical cities, or textured architectural works, this painting balances spontaneity with structure in a beautifully balanced composition.

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.

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.
