Pemaquid Point Lighthouse stands in Bristol, Maine, near the entrance to Muscongus Bay. The light station was established in 1827, and the present stone tower was first lit in 1835. This watercolor by Good Old Tom celebrates the lighthouse’s enduring presence within a rugged coastal setting. Soft washes and carefully balanced forms bring together the character of the landmark and the natural beauty surrounding it, inviting viewers to linger over a familiar symbol of Maine’s maritime heritage.
