Eagle Harbor Lighthouse / Michigan by Martie Rains

Lighthouses, scattered around Lake Superior, have warned ships of of danger for years. Treacherous rocks have been responsible for many a shipwreck. Most of the lighthouses we visited had been built in the 1800's and were still operating today. Eagle Harbor Lighthouse, Michigan, on the Keweenaw Peninsula, was originally built in 1851 then replace by another structure in 1871. This picturesque building overlooking the lake was a great subject to paint. You may purchase this painting by clicking here.
