EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the picturesque Battery Point Breakwater Lighthouse, standing proudly against the backdrop of Lunenburg in Nova Scotia. Originally built in 1864, this active lighthouse was reconstructed in 1951 during the rebuilding of the breakwater. Its purpose is to safeguard and protect the charming town of Lunenburg. Lunenburg itself is a vibrant and colorful port town that holds great historical significance as a planned British colonial settlement. Recognized for its unique architecture and civic design, it earned UNESCO World Heritage status in 1995. The photograph captures this remarkable view from a boat, allowing us to appreciate both the lighthouse's role as a symbol of safety and protection, as well as Lunenburg's rich history. The image portrays an idyllic scene with clear blue skies above and calm waters below. It highlights not only the beauty of Lunenburg Harbor but also its importance as a commercial dock supporting industries such as fishing. The composition perfectly frames both man-made structures like marinas and groynes alongside natural coastal features. With its vibrant colors - reds, whites, multi-colored buildings - this print truly encapsulates the essence of tourism in Nova Scotia. It invites viewers to immerse themselves in history while exploring one of Canada's most cherished destinations.
