Chicago Harbor Lighthouse Canvas Print by Mark Tisdale
This Chicago Harbor Lighthouse canvas print features a beautiful day with blue skies, great clouds, and a sailboat on the waters of Lake Michigan in the foreground. This old lighthouse was originally built for the 1893 <em>World’s Columbian Exposition</em> which was held in Chicago. In 1919 it was moved to its current location to the east of Navy Pier. When the light was built in the late 19th century it featured cutting edge equipment and construction to showcase new technologies for the exposition. The old harbor light was added to the US National Register of Historic Places in the 1980s. The coast guard quit using the light in 2005 and transferred ownership to the city of Chicago who is trying to preserve and maintain the historic lighthouse. As other historic lights on the great lakes have been demolished it reminds us how quickly this era of life along Lake Michigan is fading into the past.
This Chicago Harbor Lighthouse canvas print is based off photos from one of my trips there years ago. When I saw this lighthouse on a visit to Chicago years ago, I had no idea about the history of the light. I just thought it had a beautiful appearance and I admit I’m simply a sucker for old lighthouses. I felt that the lighthouse almost on the horizon was a beautiful backdrop to a passing sailboat. There’s a real sense of life on the water which I think may resonate with some who call the Chicago area home.
I would love to hear what attracted you to this Chicago Harbor Lighthouse canvas print. Do you have special memories of this lighthouse or do you simply love the history of these old buildings? Maybe it reminds you of days sailing on Lake Michigan? Or maybe some combination of all those? For me, it’s a reminder of a beautiful day on the waterfront in Chicago. There’s a real feeling of tranquility and peace that comes with this image for me.
This canvas print is available in a range of sizes from small keepsake sized prints to large pieces of wall art and in a variety of print formats.

Canvas Print – Product Information
Stretched canvas prints are a timeless way to enhance your home or office decor. Whether your style is traditional or modern, canvas art offers a versatile and sophisticated look that complements any space.
Each canvas print is custom-made to order, printed on an acid-free poly/cotton blend canvas using archival inks. This ensures your artwork will last a lifetime, retaining its vibrant colors without fading or losing detail.
When placing your order, you’ll have the option to choose between glossy or matte finishes. The glossy finish adds a subtle sheen, making colors appear more vivid, while the matte finish offers a softer look with reduced glare, making it ideal for brightly lit spaces. Let the natural light in your room guide your choice.
You can also select from three wrap styles for your canvas print:
- Mirrored wrap: The image extends around the sides of the canvas, preserving the integrity of the original artwork. This is the most popular and versatile option.
- Black wrap: A solid black color on the sides of the canvas.
- White wrap: A clean white color on the sides of the canvas.
A preview of each wrap style is available for you to view when selecting your option.
Once printed, your canvas is carefully stretched over a sturdy wooden frame made of 1.5″ x 1.5″ stretcher bars. The entire production process takes 5 to 7 business days. Your canvas print will be shipped in secure packaging with a hanging wire attached and all necessary hardware included, making it a convenient, ready-to-hang artwork.
