The Story

At the end of the day, the lighthouse remained while the shoreline slowly disappeared into colour.

I photographed the Phare des Baleines as the last light settled across the coast of Île de Ré. Rather than isolate the lighthouse as a landmark, I wanted it to remain part of the wider shoreline — a vertical presence held within the horizontal layers of sea, rock and evening light. The image is less about the monument itself than about the calm that gathers around it at the end of the day.

The lighthouse gives the eye a point of reference, but it is the fading light that determines the mood of the image. The coastline gradually becomes a sequence of quieter tones.

I wanted the familiar landmark to belong to its environment, rather than stand apart from it as a postcard subject.

Printing, Edition & Authenticity

All artworks are professionally produced by WhiteWall, an internationally recognised Fine Art printing laboratory known for its high-quality materials and craftsmanship.

Each presentation uses a carefully selected Fine Art paper:

  • Epson Fine Art Cotton Smooth Natural for unframed paper prints.

  • Hahnemühle FineArt Baryta for Dibond-mounted prints, framed or unframed.

Each size is produced in a strictly limited edition of 15 signed and numbered prints, shared across all available finishes. Choosing a different presentation does not create a separate edition.

Each print is signed and numbered by the artist and accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity.

Once the edition of 15 for a given size is complete, the work will no longer be available in that size.

In addition, no more than 30 prints of the same photograph will be produced across all sizes and finishes combined.

Once this overall limit is reached, the photograph will be permanently withdrawn from sale in every size and finish.

Production & Shipping

Each artwork is made to order and professionally produced by WhiteWall.

Shipping costs are calculated according to size, presentation and destination. Delivery times vary depending on the selected configuration and destination country.

Every artwork is securely packaged for safe delivery.
