Bass Harbor Head Light oil painting

Oil on canvas measures 24x18
I enhance Bass Harbor Head Light to reflect the way I see a spring day.
The history of Bass Harbor Head Light dates to 1855, when it was determined that there was sufficient reason for a lighthouse at the mouth of Bass Harbor. A fixed red light went into service on September 1, 1858. It served to warn mariners of the Bass HarborBar at the eastern entrance to Bass Harbor, and also to mark the southeast entrance to Blue Hill Bay. Throughout its history as a staffed light station, Bass Harbor Head was home to a single keeper and his family.
