"Passing Thomas Point" by Paul McGehee. One of the most striking sights on Maryland's Chesapeake Bay is Thomas Point Lighthouse, now over a century old. Still serving as a beacon to passing ships, she is one of the last remaining screw-pile type lighthouses in the United States, and one of the very few in the world still in use. For most of her career, she was manned, with the keeper and keeper's family living within. Located near Annapolis and maintained by the United States Coast Guard, Thomas Point Lighthouse is today a cherished landmark to yachtsmen and merchant seamen alike. This special print is from a small miniature oil sketch Paul did on location in 1980. "Passing Thomas Point" is an archival-quality print in limited edition from the original oil painting...hand-signed and numbered by the artist. Print image size: 7" x 9 1/2". Edition size 500 S/N. (Final shipping cost on this small print may indeed be less than actually displayed upon purchase, depending upon destination and weight.)
