Description: This serene coastal gouache by French artist Fanch Lel depicts a small fleet of fishing boats resting on the sand under an overcast sky. The palette—composed of gentle greys, cool blues, and soft sandy tones—evokes the quiet, post-storm calm of a northern French harbour, possibly in Brittany or Normandy. The boats are captured with minimalist charm, their masts standing like sentinels against the sky. A set of stone steps rises from the beach, leading the eye toward the pier wall and a row of white sails or flags gently catching the breeze. Lel's loose brushstrokes and understated composition give the scene a sense of quiet authenticity, typical of everyday maritime life. Ideal for collectors of nautical art, coastal scenes, or impressionist gouache works, this painting offers a beautifully restrained and atmospheric depiction of the working French shoreline.
