One stands next to a deck chair while the other is seated, creating a lively yet serene snapshot of seaside leisure. The sand stretches across the foreground while the turquoise sea beyond glistens under the sky, dotted with colorful umbrellas and parasols. Fanch Lel’s loose brushstrokes and vibrant color palette evoke the carefree atmosphere of a summer day by the shore, and the soft pastel tones highlight the warmth and relaxation of the scene. The artist’s use of light and shadow skillfully conveys the play of sunlight across the sand and figures, making this piece a captivating tribute to the joys of summertime.
