Pencil drawing print titled 'Currituck Lighthouse' by M. Barry

The Currituck Beach Lighthouse, located in Corolla, North Carolina, was completed in 1875 as one of the last major brick lighthouses built on the Outer Banks. Standing 162 feet tall with its distinctive unpainted red brick exterior, it filled a critical gap in the lighthouse network along the treacherous North Carolina coast. The lighthouse remains an active navigational aid and has become one of the most photographed landmarks in the Outer Banks region. Lighthouse artwork appeals strongly to maritime enthusiasts, coastal decor collectors, and those with connections to North Carolina's Outer Banks. Limited edition prints like this one, numbered 89/500, offer accessibility to fine art while maintaining collectible value through their restricted production. Such pieces are particularly valued by lighthouse preservation societies and individuals who appreciate nautical Americana for their nostalgic charm and connection to coastal history.
