The Back Story:

Duxbury Pier 

     Duxbury Pier Lighthouse was first lit on September 15, 1871. The structure, 47-feet tall, was filled with concrete to height of 25 feet. The Tower contained three levels below the lantern, including two that served as living quarters. Duxbury Pier Lighthouse was automated in 1964 and remains an active aid to navigation. While it can be seen distantly from the Plymouth waterfront, it is best viewed from the harbor cruises and whale watches out of Plymouth.

 About the Artist: Paul M. Bradley Jr., an architect by profession, began drawing lighthouses after a New England vacation sparked his interest in the structures. His drawings appear quarterly in the Keeper's Log, a publication of the U.S. Lighthouse Society (www.uslhs.org).
