Description: This piece, titled Pêcheur dans la baie du Mont pour la pêche au Bouquet ("Fisherman in the Bay of Mont for Shrimp Fishing"), painted by Fanch Lel in 2012, depicts a fisherman on the shoreline. He is holding a shrimp net, making his way through the water, with a background scene showing distant rocks and a lighthouse. The bold brushstrokes and vibrant colors bring an energy to the scene, capturing the motion of the fisherman as he engages in traditional shrimp fishing, a common practice in the area around Mont Saint-Michel.
The use of blues, greens, and yellows in the figure contrasts with the surrounding rugged landscape and the deep blue water, creating a sense of harmony between the fisherman and his environment. This is an expressive piece, full of life and movement, with the added context of the local fishing tradition enriching its significance.

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.
