Description:
This vibrant impressionist harbour scene captures the serene charm of a quiet coastal inlet in Brittany, where clusters of small fishing boats bob gently in calm green waters beneath an open sky. A whitewashed boathouse sits nestled among tall pine trees on the shoreline, while seagulls arc overhead, adding a sense of freedom and lightness to the composition.
Painted in broad, energetic strokes and a confident palette of sea greens, soft blues, and earthy ochres, this piece evokes the warmth and stillness of a summer morning in a hidden fishing village. The perspective draws your eye from the foreground's rustic dock and lilac pathway through the layered boats toward the rugged golden rocks beyond.
The artist’s loose yet expressive technique allows texture and movement to shine — you can almost hear the creak of the boats and the rustle of trees in the breeze. It’s a work that celebrates the slow rhythms of coastal life, and invites you to linger in its peaceful atmosphere. Ideal for collectors who love maritime scenes, French landscapes, or art that brings a moment of stillness to the everyday.

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.
