Description: Cape Neddick (Nubble) Lighthouse York, Maine Double Matted Art print of the Cape Neddick ( Nubble ) Lighthouse in York, Maine originally painted on a nautical chart by William B. MacGregor Jr. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Cape Neddick Lighthouse is located on Nubble Island which is about 100 yards off Cape Neddick Point which is at the north end of Long Sands Beach in York, Maine. Plans had been in the works since 1837 but it wasn’t until 1879 it wasn’t dedicated by the U.S. Lighthouse Service. It is still in use today. The tower is lined with brick and sheathed with cast iron. It stands 41 feet but the light is actually 88 feet above sea level because it sits on a steep rocky islet. Unusually, the stanchions of the walkway railing around the lantern room are decorated with 4-inch (100 mm) brass replicas of the lighthouse itself. The boathouse and boat-slip were built on the island in 1888 and the bright red oil house was added in 1902. Construction Materials: Cast Iron lined with brick. Height of focal plane: 88 feet Present Optic: Forth-Order Fresnel Lens (1928) Characteristic: Three seconds red light alternating with three seconds of darkness.

MacGregor Jr. Watercolors The Nautical Chart Artist William B. MacGregor, Jr. was born in Medfield, MA, the son and grandson of Norfolk Hunt Club kennel masters. Many of his family members were self taught artists, woodcarvers, automobile mechanics and veterans of foreign wars including his father a WW1 US Army veteran. Bill is a graduate of Medfield High School, Wentworth Institute, and Northeastern University. His engineering career, from which he is now retired, included working for military and aerospace companies in industrial engineering and IR optics. His painting incorporates “old skool” mechanical and civil drafting tools and he uses a mixed medium of watercolors, acrylics and inks. Two rabbits are often in quite a few of his paintings. Look for them. He is frequently commissioned by United States Naval officers to create paintings of their ships and aircraft carriers on nautical charts. In May,2018, and for one year, four of Bill’s automotive related paintings were on display at the Larz Anderson Auto Museum in Brookline, MA
