Turkey Point Lighthouse Coastal Landscape Photo Fine Art Canvas Wall Art Prints

Turkey Point Lighthouse — Chesapeake Bay Maryland Coastal Landscape Fine Art Canvas Print by Melissa Fague

Turkey Point Lighthouse stands at the tip of Elk Neck Peninsula — its brilliant white facade gleaming in the warm sunlight against a backdrop of cerulean sky and wispy clouds, the vibrant green grass of the peninsula stretching out before it, the whole scene rendered with the clarity and warmth of a summer day on the Chesapeake Bay when the light is at its most golden and the sky is at its most blue and the lighthouse stands exactly as it has stood since 1833, guiding mariners through the upper Bay with the quiet, steadfast authority of one of Maryland’s most beloved and most historic coastal landmarks. Melissa Fague photographs Turkey Point Lighthouse with the eye of a landscape photographer who understands that the most powerful lighthouse images are the ones that capture not just the structure but the place — the sky, the grass, the light, and the particular quality of the Chesapeake Bay on a day when everything is exactly as beautiful as it can be.

Turkey Point Lighthouse has been guiding mariners through the upper Chesapeake Bay since 1833 — one of the oldest and most beloved lighthouses on the Bay, perched at the very tip of Elk Neck Peninsula in Cecil County, Maryland, where the Elk River meets the Bay and the view in every direction is water and sky and the extraordinary natural beauty of the upper Chesapeake. It is a lighthouse with a long history and a devoted following — hikers come to Elk Neck State Park to walk the trail to the lighthouse, photographers come to capture it in every season and every light, and anyone who has ever stood at Turkey Point and looked out over the Bay understands why this particular lighthouse, on this particular peninsula, has been one of the most painted and photographed landmarks in Maryland for nearly two centuries. This is a signed, hand-numbered limited edition print — a collectible work of coastal landscape fine art with lasting warmth, Chesapeake Bay heritage, and the timeless beauty of Turkey Point Lighthouse in its most perfect light.
