Griffith Island Lighthouse by Norman Repacholi

Griffith Island Lighthouse by

The Griffith Island Lighthouse was built in 1859 and is located a very short distance from Port Fairy, Victoria.

The lighthouse is constructed from blue stone, however one of the duties of the lighthouse keeper was to keep the structure painted – and maintain the signal!

The last lighthouse keeper lived on the island from 1929 to 1954. Shortly afterward the lighthouse became automated.

Shot on C41 film and digitised using a scanner.
