26175b. (hand colored photograph) Marshall Point Lighthouse, Port Clyde , Maine . c.1910-1920. Beautiful hand colored photograph taken from the rear, on original mat shows a wonderful clear, close view of the distinctive fifth order light tower, with the walkway leading from the distinctive gambrel roofed light keeper’s house, with the pyramidal bell tower and flowered landscape in the foreground. The mat is not signed. It may be a Gardiner or Coffin, or possibly a Wallace Nutting, Sawyer, Davidson or other notable artists of the time. Superb detail, clear, crisp, just a hint of soiling. A fine early image, beautifully hand colored. The image measures 3 ¼” x 5 ½” on a 7” x 9”period mat. Rematting and framing will make this a superb display piece. (VG-). $68.
