Lighthouses are depicted as symbols of strength. They symbolize shelter, protection and peace. Lighthouses expose the connection between inanimate structures and human emotion in a way that few other buildings can. Equipped with powerful radio transmitters and lights bright enough to penetrate the darkness, lighthouses serve as maritime and aerial navigational aids. They are often used to symbolize true guidance and steadfastness in relationships, teams and organizations, encapsulating their ability to weather any storm. Lighthouses have also been used to represent the determination to achieve goals, no matter the challenges. This piece is of Orient Point Lighthouse on the Northfork of Long Island located at the deep and narrow gap between Orient Point and Plum Island, called Plum Gutis. The artwork is a photo-based image with acrylic overlay. We took a private boat ride in order to photograph it, together with two other lighthouses in that area. This one is only accessible by boat and was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2007. Ready to hang as is on stretched canvas or framing upon request. Comes with Certificate of Authenticity.
