Portland
Head Lighthouse
Stained Glass
This stained
glass
panel measures 20"
wide x
16" high.
This
lighthouse was
built in 1791 and
is the
oldest one in Maine.
It has a white conical
tower,
a
charming Victorian keeper's
house with a rambling
red roof and
eyebrow
eves on the porch.
A commanding setting at
the
southwest
entrance to Portland
harbor and beautifully
landscaped
grounds.
It was commissioned
by George Washington
and dedicated
by
the Marquis de Lafayette.
We
used a seldom seen
angle for our
design
so you can see
a better view of the keepers
house. Most of the glass we used
if Spectrum Pearl Opal glass.
We have finished
the cut, grind and foil phases.
We will solder, patina and polish soon. We will
post a finished image when it is completed.
