EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the majestic Ile Vierge Lighthouse, located in Brittany, France. The first lighthouse on this site was built between 1842 and 1845, standing tall at 33 meters (108 ft). It commenced its operations on the auspicious day of August 15th, 1845, coinciding with the feast day of the Assumption of the Virgin. With its fixed white light shining brightly for a remarkable distance of 14 nautical miles (26 km; 16 mi), it faithfully guided sailors to safety. While construction for a newer lighthouse took place from 1896 to 1902, this original structure continued serving its purpose diligently. In fact, it remained operational until completion of its successor. In addition to its luminous presence, a foghorn was installed in 1952 as an added safety measure for seafarers navigating through misty conditions. This foghorn would later be replaced by an electric beacon in 1993. The second and current iteration stands tall at an impressive height of 82.5 meters (271 ft), constructed using sturdy blocks of granite that exude strength and resilience against nature's forces. Together with the picturesque surroundings and breathtaking coastal views offered by Brittany's rugged landscape, this iconic lighthouse continues to captivate visitors from around the world. This exquisite print by fhm showcases not only Fine Art Storehouse's commitment to preserving historical landmarks but also their dedication to capturing moments that evoke wonder and
