United States Maine Camden Curtis Island Lighthouse Black And White Coastal Architecture Serene Wall Art | Limited Edition of 10
This black-and-white photograph was taken at Curtis Island Lighthouse near Camden, Maine, where the small historic structure stands quietly above the waterline, separated from the mainland by a narrow stretch of sea. A weathered wooden walkway leads directly toward the lighthouse, drawing the eye forward and giving the image a natural sense of invitation and direction.
In monochrome, the scene becomes about simplicity and balance. The pale lighthouse contrasts gently with the darker grasses and worn boards beneathfoot, while the open water and soft sky remove any sense of urgency. The structure feels modest rather than imposing, grounded in its purpose and shaped by time rather than scale.
Curtis Island is accessible only by boat, and that separation defines the experience of being here. There’s a pause that happens when you step onto the island—no traffic, no noise, just water, wind, and the sound of your own movement across the ground. That quiet carries through in the photograph, making it feel personal and unforced.
This image works exceptionally well in spaces that value calm, symmetry, and subtle texture—such as offices, hallways, studies, or minimalist interiors. The strong central composition provides structure, while the black-and-white palette allows the photograph to blend naturally without competing with its surroundings.
This photograph was created on location through real travel and lived experience. I personally sign each print and include a certificate of authenticity confirming it as an original, artist-made photograph.
If you’re drawn to intimate lighthouse scenes with a strong sense of approach and place, you may also appreciate Pemaquid Point Lighthouse From The Rocks, Black and White.

Limited Edition of 10
This photograph is released as a signed and numbered limited edition of only 10 prints in total across all available sizes combined—not 10 prints in each size.
Every size is drawn from the same edition. Whether the photograph is purchased as a small print or at the largest available size, it uses one of the 10 edition numbers.
I personally sign and number each print on the reverse, and every print is accompanied by a signed Certificate of Authenticity recording its title, dimensions, medium, edition number, and date of issue.
Once all 10 prints have been sold, the edition will be permanently closed. No additional numbered editions of the photograph will be produced in another size or format.
Premium Archival Fine Art Prints
I personally produce every photograph using archival pigment inks on premium archival paper with a subtle luster finish.
The paper provides rich tonal depth, excellent fine-detail reproduction, and a refined surface that reduces distracting glare under normal indoor lighting. It is especially well suited to both color and black-and-white photography.
Each photograph is sold as an unframed fine art print, allowing it to be framed according to the collector’s space and personal style.
Before a print leaves my studio, I carefully inspect it for color, tonal accuracy, surface quality, and overall presentation. Nothing is outsourced, and every finished print passes through my hands.
Worldwide Delivery Included
Every print is personally produced, inspected, signed, numbered, and carefully packaged by me at my studio in Haliburton, Ontario, Canada.
Worldwide delivery is included in the listed price, so there is no additional shipping charge added during checkout. I select an appropriate tracked delivery service based on the destination, print size, and current shipping requirements.
Delivery times vary by destination and may be affected by customs processing or circumstances beyond my control.
Because I also travel extensively to create new photographic work, studio dispatch may occasionally be delayed while I am away. When that happens, the print will be produced and shipped as soon as I return to the studio.
