Burnt Island Lighthouse

Burnt Island Lighthouse stands on Burnt Island at the entrance to Boothbay Harbor, Maine. First lit in 1821, the lighthouse was established to guide vessels navigating one of the busiest and most protected harbors along the Maine coast. The current tower, completed in 1857, overlooks the rocky shoreline, spruce-covered islands, and sheltered waters that have long supported fishing, shipbuilding, and maritime commerce in the region. Today, the lighthouse remains an enduring symbol of Boothbay Harbor's rich nautical heritage.

This vintage-inspired Burnt Island Lighthouse print celebrates one of Maine's oldest and most historic coastal beacons. Drawing inspiration from the bold colors and clean geometric forms of WPA-era travel posters, the artwork highlights the lighthouse's classic white tower, island setting, and rugged coastal scenery. Designed for lighthouse enthusiasts, maritime historians, coastal travelers, and collectors of New England landmarks, this piece captures the timeless character of a beacon that has welcomed mariners to Boothbay Harbor for more than two centuries.
