The natural beauty of Monhegan Island has continuously attracted generations of artists; day-trippers; and summer sojourners. White Head; Pulpit Rock; and Cathedral Woods are names that resonate throughout New England and beyond. Long before the first ferry full of seasonal visitors arrived; the Monhegan Island fishermen had established a permanent community on the island; scratching out an existence on a remote offshore outpost. As early as 1890; prominent artists Robert Henri and George Bellows; followed by Rockwell Kent and Jamie Wyeth; captured the magnificence of Monhegan. They shared the cliffs and coves with the lighthouse keepers; carpenters; lobstermen; and the island people.
