Sankaty Head Light Lighthouse, rendered in a vintage style, Nantucket, Massachusetts USA. The 70 foot tall red and white striped brick lighthouse was built in 1850. It was the first in Massachusetts with a Fresnel lens, replaced in 1950 with a rotating aerobeacon. Although automated in 1965, the Coast Guard occupied the station until 1992. In 2007, it was moved 250 feet from the edge of an eroding bluff to its current location
