Size: 15 x 18 inches (height x width)

Description:
This richly textured impressionist painting by Fanch Lel depicts a view of Moissac, a charming town in the Occitanie region of southern France, famed for its Romanesque abbey and sun-drenched scenery. The painting captures the town’s signature terracotta rooftops beneath a blue-grey sky, with a prominent church tower rising above the clustered houses.
The foreground is filled with blooming white and yellow foliage, possibly cherry or almond blossoms, set against tall, narrow cypress trees that lend vertical rhythm to the composition. A weathered stone wall runs diagonally through the lower left corner, leading the eye into the townscape beyond.
Executed with bold, layered strokes of thick oil paint, the work radiates energy and colour. Lel’s brushwork is expressive and varied, with light dabs, palette knife smears, and daubs that together build a sense of seasonal abundance. The use of impasto lends the scene a tactile quality and creates a play of light and shadow on the surface.
Ideal for collectors drawn to French regional landscapes, historic towns, and richly textured impressionist work, this piece would suit rustic or traditional interiors, as well as contemporary spaces looking for warmth and heritage.

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.
