The Blessing of the Penmarc'h Boats by Fernand ALLARD L'OLIVIER - 1922 Oil on canvas. Signed and dated lower right. H.65 cm x W.92 cm Old jetty of the port of Saint-Guénolé - Penmarc'h. Letter to his wife, May 1, 1917 - I opened my window wide. The sun floods in and with it the joy of the heart, the fresh joy like the white dresses of the little communicants. An equal, sweet rumor penetrates everywhere. It is the one we heard in Penmarc'h, the sea singing in the sun or chattering without interruption on a familiar subject: the joy of living. -
