Title: French Impressionist Oil Painting of Village de Laroque, Aveyron, France
By Fanch Lel (French b. 1930)
Size: 8.75 x 10.75 inches (height x width)
Signed: Yes
Oil painting on board, unframed

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: This charming landscape painting depicts the tranquil village of Laroque, nestled within the lush region of Aveyron, France. Painted in 1992, Fanch Lel captures the quintessential beauty of rural French life, offering a window into the serene and undisturbed atmosphere of a historic provincial village.
The scene is bathed in the soft light of an overcast sky, where subtle blues and grays dominate the atmosphere, creating a gentle contrast with the warmth of the village’s buildings. The rooftops, painted in rich terracotta, harmonize with the surrounding landscape of verdant trees and rolling hills, adding texture and depth to the composition. Lel’s use of impasto in key areas, such as the trees and reflections in the water, brings an added dimensionality to the piece, evoking the tactile feel of nature’s organic beauty.
The water in the foreground acts as a reflective mirror, subtly rippling with light strokes of green and lavender, suggesting the movement of the wind across the surface. Lel’s impressionistic brushwork captures the timeless charm of this rustic village, evoking a sense of quietude and calm that transports the viewer into the heart of the French countryside.
The muted palette and soft tonal transitions lend the painting an almost dreamlike quality, inviting the viewer to linger on the tranquil scene. This piece would resonate with admirers of both impressionist and plein-air traditions, and it would make a perfect addition to collections focused on pastoral landscapes or the charm of rural Europe.

Grand-Brassac is situated in the Dordogne department and Nouvelle-Aquitaine region. It is part of newly released small works from V....Vaughan's collection of recent travels in and around France and Italy. V....Vaughan painted each of these on location "en plein air" It has an Impressionistic Style as seen in many of Virginia Vaughan's paintings.
V....Vaughan is know for her animal, Texas missions Italy, France and Gulf Coast paintings. . Also shown in photos are other paintings by in the "Small Works" collection. Photos were taken to show the detail of each painting.
Her paintings are part of the permanent collection of the Gadsen Museum of Art, the Bone Creek Museum of Agrarian Art and the Great Plains Art Museum as well as in countless private collections. In the fall 2023 she will teach a workshop at a castle in France, where artists will stay and enjoy the southern French food and scenes.
I paint because it’s the best way I know to communicate, study, and observe creative work that’s how Texas painter V…. Vaughan (the first initial stands for Virginia) describes her drive to create fine art. “It’s a calling,” she says of her life’s work, which has taken several twists and turns but has, nevertheless, led her down the path toward fulfillment.
A lifelong Texan, Vaughan grew up in the Austin area and today makes her home in Round Rock, a suburb of the capital city. As a child, she exhibited a love of making art and played the role of the creative one among the seven children in her family, eventually working for several of her siblings as a sign painter and designer. Her parents forever encouraged her to appreciate and mine her passion, instilling in her that it was not simply a passing fancy, but an innate gift. “It was always conveyed to me that this was a God-given talent,” she says. Somehow that made me feel like it was something I was supposed to do. It gave me permission to pursue it.
Vaughan attended college on an athletic scholarship, though she filled her schedule with art classes and subsequently secured an internship at an advertising agency. That introduction to the corporate world set her off in a new direction—she left school to parlay the summer job into a full-time position. She continued to work as a commercial artist for many years after that, winning several prestigious ADDY Awards and working on high-profile accounts for Samsung, the Lady Bird Johnson...
