Agenda Old Gurnet Lighthouses

Gurnet Light, also known as Plymouth Light, is the oldest standing wooden lighthosue in the United States. With a hazy blue sky, soft greens of a grass covered hillside, and vibrant reds of the support buldings' rooftops, this painting shows how the lighthouse and its beacons looked prior to 1924 before the northeast tower was torn down. The lightouses watch over Plymouth Bay in Plymouth, Massachusetts but are currently only accessible by land through the neighboring town of Duxbury.
