Petite Phare

- Description
Print Name: Petite Phare
Captured: July 2024 | Location: 47.68 N, 69.726 W - Saint-André-de-Kamouraska, QC, Canada
The Story: A peaceful, picturesque scene capturing the **"Petit Phare"** (little lighthouse) in the Parc de l'Ancien-Quai in Saint-André-de-Kamouraska, Quebec. This charming red and white structure is a beloved local emblem and a **replica of the original, now-defunct lighthouse** that once stood on the nearby Long Pèlerin island in the St. Lawrence River estuary. The park is a popular stop on the Navigators' Route, offering walking trails along the aboiteau (tide gate) and the pier, with interpretive panels on local history and wildlife. This image captures the dramatic cloudscape and the serene meeting of the land and the vast **St. Lawrence River**, a vital artery for Canadian history.
Every print is personally inspected, and hand-signed by Métis artist Jason Lee.

Gallery Wrapped Canvas Blanco Satin Canvas (Ready to Hang)
- Best for: A modern, frameless look with an artistic, tactile feel.

- Ready to Hang: Arrives fully assembled and ready to adorn your wall.
ChromaLuxe Metallic Panels (Vibrant & Durable)
- Best for: High-impact areas where clarity and color "pop" are the priorities.
- Details: Images are infused directly into aluminum panels for breathtaking depth and a glossy finish. These are scratch-resistant, waterproof, and can be cleaned with standard glass cleaner.
- Float Mount: Arrives with a hidden rear mount that makes the art appear to "levitate" 1/2" off the wall.
