14142. (mounted photo) Monhegan Island Lighthouse, Maine c.1900. Unusual large view featuring a clear, close view of the Monhegan Lighthouse, about 10 miles offshore from midcoast Maine. The 48-foot granite tower built in 1850 still stands today. It is very similar to the lighthouse on Whitehead Island, built at about the same time. A new two-story keeper’s house was built in 1874. Clear, close image shows great detail of the tower and a portion of the walkway to the attached keeper’s dwelling. Wonderful composition and clarity, crystal clear, shows great detail including the curtains closed to block the sun. Image 4” x 7”. Clean, crisp. There is a vertical fold to mount to the right of the light tower. (VG-). $48.
