Monhegan Island Lighthouse

Monhegan Island Lighthouse stands atop the highest point on Monhegan Island, approximately ten miles off the coast of Maine. First lit in 1824, the lighthouse was built to guide vessels navigating the busy fishing grounds and coastal shipping routes of the Gulf of Maine. Perched on a rugged island known for its dramatic cliffs, maritime forests, and long tradition as an artists' colony, the lighthouse commands sweeping views of the surrounding ocean. Today, it remains one of Maine's most historic and recognizable island landmarks.

This vintage-inspired Monhegan Island Lighthouse print celebrates one of Maine's most iconic offshore beacons. Drawing inspiration from the bold colors and simplified forms of WPA-era travel posters, the artwork highlights the lighthouse's elevated setting, rugged coastline, and expansive ocean vistas. Designed for lighthouse enthusiasts, artists, maritime historians, coastal travelers, and collectors of New England landmarks, this piece captures the enduring beauty and maritime character of a beacon that has watched over the Gulf of Maine for more than two centuries.
