This beautiful impressionist oil painting depicts a vibrant bouquet of flowers in full bloom, set against a softly textured, abstract background. The artist has used expressive, loose brushstrokes to capture the organic beauty of the flowers, which seem to burst from the dark, reflective vase with energy and life. The arrangement includes a variety of blossoms in shades of yellow, red, pink, and white, their forms just loosely defined to emphasize the flow and color over strict realism.
We are pleased to offer a significant collection of original works by Fanch Lel, a celebrated Breton artist known for his captivating depictions of Brittany’s landscapes, markets, and traditional life.

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.
