A finely detailed, limited-edition lithograph print from 1975 by prominent Maryland regional artist John Moll. The monochrome composition captures the historic Thomas Point Shoal Lighthouse—the iconic hexagonal screwpile structure situated in the Chesapeake Bay near Annapolis. Rendered with precise, delicate line work and tonal shading, the scene is filled with coastal vitality, depicting a seagull gliding low over the water in the foreground and a flock of waterfowl sweeping across a textured, overcast sky.
The print features hand-inscribed pencil annotations along the lower margin, including the title "Thomas Point Light" on the left, the limited edition numbering "148/200" in the center, and the artist's signature and date "John Moll '75" on the right. It is presented with a wide off-white mat board and is housed under glass in a classic black wooden frame with a subtle inner gold-toned accent lip. The reverse retains a historical information label detailing the construction and history of the lighthouse, presented with the compliments of Russell T. Baker & Co., Inc. Gallery of Homes.
