Portland Observatory Blueprint Drawing – Portland Maine Observatory Drawing, Maritime Signal Tower, Home Décor, Blueprint Décor, Nautical

Description

Portland Observatory Blueprint. The Portland Observatory is a historic maritime signal tower in Portland, Maine. It was built in 1807, and is the only known surviving tower of its type in the United States. Using both a telescope and signal flags, two-way communication between ship and shore was possible several hours before an incoming vessel reached the docks.

This print makes for an interesting decoration in you home, office or anywhere else. It is definitely a conversation piece.

The original image was digitally cleaned up, adjusted, modified and prepared for printing by me.

WHAT MAKES MY PRINTS DIFFERENT

Sure, you might find similar pictures elsewhere but not all prints are equal. I don’t use regular printers and paper to print this art. Instead, I use a high end lab and the prints are made on professional photo printers using high quality a archival inks and acid-free archival Lustre paper. Lustre is a premium finish on a heavier paper and offers the vibrant colors of glossy with the fingerprint-resistant finish of matte. This type of finish avoids glare on the print.

Prints are available in all popular sizes. You can select your size while you order.

My listing photos are low resolution. Original high resolution files are used for printing. My pictures are not framed and do not include a frame. Some of the pictures with frames are just for illustration purposes only.
