Larger than life bronze sculpture, a monument to the 18+ head keepers and dozens of assistants (1859-1927) that tended the Lighthouse. The sculpture was experiencing concentrated erosion on the northeast elevation- due to salt air combined with sand from the surrounding walking path.

The sculpture was washed with Orvis® - non-ionic detergent soap, and hot and cold wax applications.
