Cape Elizabeth Light, in Cape Elizabeth, Maine was painted by American realist painter Edward Hopper in the summer of 1927. I felt fortunate to obtain permission to visit the grounds some 80 years later. Today the Victorian house is a private residence, and the tower is under the care of the American Lighthouse Foundation. Much has changed since Hopper’s time. The house has been extensively remodeled and the once-barren hillside is now layered with fine homes. Still, it was easy to be taken back to Hopper’s time as I sketched and photographed this classic lighthouse in the morning light. The tower and house dominates my composition so I have kept the sky simple, but I have detailed the low-tide rocks of Casco Bay and distant Cushing Island that provided the depth I was seeking. Maine’s coastal Rugosa roses added a lively final touch.

The colors are bold and striking with a solid ink coverage reminiscent of silk-screen printing

SPECIAL BIRTHDAY GIFT

I ordered the 8x8 framed Cape Elizabeth print for my husband’s 86th birthday . He was so thrilled with it and we hung it with his many other lighthouse prints on our wall of lighthouses.
As we sit on the loveseat we look at it each night and the depth of it makes it feel like we are right there.
I was also grateful that along with the print, a birthday card , calendar and bookmarks came with it.
I will certainly be ordering from you again. We love Maine and are extremely grateful to have this print in our home.
