Description:
In this dynamic coastal painting by Fanch Lel, the viewer is drawn into the quiet charm of Le Port de Piriac—a fishing harbour in Piriac-sur-Mer, a historic maritime town on the Atlantic coast of western France. A tall white lighthouse stands proudly on the quay as a fleet of moored boats bobs gently in the golden light. The reflections ripple across the calm sea surface, rendered in rich ochres, greens, and mauves that shimmer beneath the boats.
Lel’s painterly technique features short, decisive brushstrokes and an impressionist palette, especially evident in the loose depiction of the sky with soft lilacs and blush tones. The central fishing boats, with their navy blue hulls and crimson accents, are balanced compositionally by the vertical lighthouse and soft horizon beyond.
Piriac-sur-Mer is celebrated for its traditional granite architecture, beaches, and active fishing heritage. This painting captures a fleeting moment of stillness at the port—ideal for collectors of nautical art, French regional landscapes, or those who appreciate evocative harbour scenes with expressive brushwork.

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.
