This lighthouse stands in Narragansett Bay in North Kingstown- built in 1899 and now on the National Register of Historic Places. It was deactivated after the first Jamestown bridge was built in 1941, and was sorely neglected until 1999 when the Friends of Plum Beach Lighthouse took over and totally restored it. Also, it is now licensed by the Coast Guard as a navigational aid. It has always caught my fancy, and it’s been depicted by many artists and photographers. This painting is 8x8 on a cradled panel.
