Watch Hill Lighthouse

Watch Hill Lighthouse stands on the southwestern tip of Rhode Island in the village of Watch Hill, overlooking Block Island Sound and the Atlantic Ocean. First established in 1808, the lighthouse was built to guide vessels navigating the busy coastal waters between Long Island, Block Island, and southern New England. The current granite tower, completed in 1856, occupies a commanding position above the rocky shoreline and historic harbor. Today, it remains one of Rhode Island's most recognizable coastal landmarks and a symbol of the state's maritime heritage.

This vintage-inspired Watch Hill Lighthouse print celebrates one of New England's most iconic coastal beacons. Drawing inspiration from the bold colors and simplified forms of WPA-era travel posters, the artwork highlights the lighthouse's elegant granite tower, dramatic shoreline setting, and sweeping ocean views. Designed for lighthouse enthusiasts, maritime historians, coastal travelers, and collectors of New England landmarks, this piece captures the enduring character of a beacon that has safeguarded mariners along Rhode Island's southern coast for more than two centuries.
