Lighting the Way
Images of Lighthouses from the RIBA Collections
Of the many navigational aids lighthouses are perhaps the most symbolic and, frequently by virtue of the need to construct them in wild and rugged locations, some of the most challenging to build.
This article about five very different lighthouses from 1543 to 1960 is accompanied by the gallery below showing the wide range of images of lighthouses held in the RIBA Collections.
All of the images are available to download, purchase or license as well as other images here with a nautical theme.
