Description: This dreamy impressionist seascape by French artist Fanch Lel depicts a quiet coastal village, anchored by a pair of turreted stone buildings and small fishing boats docked along calm waters. Rendered in soft pastel tones of beige, cream, blush, grey, and pale green, the composition exudes an atmosphere of stillness and misty light—suggestive of dawn or dusk. The artist uses confident, textural strokes on corrugated cardboard to evoke architectural form and shoreline movement. The boats in the foreground appear loosely sketched yet grounded in place, their dark silhouettes standing in contrast to the light-infused landscape. A slight haze softens the distant horizon, enhancing the dreamlike quality of the scene. A subtle and evocative composition, this work captures the fleeting charm of a quiet fishing village. Its restrained palette and soft surface handling make it especially well-suited to collectors of atmospheric marine paintings or French post-war impressionist landscapes.
