This original fine art photograph captures Sankaty Head Lighthouse up close — the tower's bold red and white bands filling the frame against a soft, hazy blue Nantucket sky. Shot from directly below the lantern room, the composition is intentionally graphic and minimal: no horizon, no context, just the lighthouse and the light. The result is something that sits somewhere between fine art photography and a vintage travel poster, and it works in a space the same way.
Sankaty Head has stood on the bluffs of Siasconset since 1850, one of the most recognizable lighthouses on the Eastern Seaboard. The red and white banding makes it unmistakable — and in color, it really earns that reputation.
Also available in black and white if you prefer a more understated look — or hang both together for a striking Nantucket gallery wall pairing.
A natural fit for Nantucket cottages, Cape Cod beach houses, coastal living rooms, and any interior that can handle a confident pop of color. Works beautifully as a standalone statement piece or paired with other coastal photography.
