Title: Fanch Lel; French Autumn Landscape Oil Painting of Riverside Mill with Reflections

Description: Title: French Impressionist Cathedral and Bridge Scene with Soft Pastel Palette By Fanch Lel Size: 18.25 x 15 inches (height x width) Oil painting on board, unframed Condition: The painting is in good condition with expressive texture throughout; minor surface wear and edge scuffing present. Provenance: All the paintings we have for sale by this artist have come from the artists estate and have had no previous owners at all. Description: Rendered in a palette of muted greys, pale blush, and warm ochres, this atmospheric oil painting by Fanch Lel presents a romantic European cityscape. The focal point is a dramatic cathedral with twin spires, softened by misty tones that suggest early morning or a foggy day. A classic stone bridge arches across the foreground, its reflections abstracted into layered textures on the water’s surface. The buildings nestled between cathedral and bridge are painted in soft yellows, creams, and greys, with subtle peachy highlights. Lel’s signature technique—visible knife strokes and thick layers of paint—gives this otherwise delicate scene a strong physical presence, making the surface almost sculptural. This work evokes the charm of cities like Chartres or Rouen and will appeal to collectors who appreciate expressive urban landscapes with an impressionistic, tactile finish.
