Painting
One framed oil painting on canvas of the old Belle Isle Coast Guard Station. The painting shows a land side, corner view of the 2-story red brick station building and lighthouse. A driveway, lawn area, trees, picnic tables, and the station can be seen in the foreground. The Detroit River and Windsor, Ontario, shoreline are visible in the background. The artist has signed his name, "G. W. Styles," in the lower left corner. The painting is held in a decorative wood frame that has been finished with gold-colored paint that has faint lines of white. A yellowed, undated newspaper clipping on the back shows a halftone photographic image of the station with a short caption and the headline, "100th Anniversary."
