I just returned from a much-needed, albeit brief vacation in the mid coast of
Maine. On my last day, I was able to explore the
Historic Lighthouse at Pemaquid Point, located in a picturesque setting on the rocks since 1827.
While we were clambering around on cliffs, I began considering the various depictions of the lighthouse in painting. In a quick search on
Artsy.net, I compiled these few widely varied examples, ranging from a close-hued
Pointillist painting from the 19th century by
Georges Seurat, to
contemporary painting, both Realist and abstract, to a fantasy-like, almost Surreal, contemporary work by
Andrea Kowch (
previously featured here).
