霍珀在夏季多次访问缅因州伊丽莎白角时，画了几幅两盏灯塔和毗邻海湾的海岸警卫队的风景。在Hopper的分类账中，这个地方有白色的沙子和鲜艳的蓝水，被描述为“非常干净、干净、整洁”（艺术家的分类账，惠特尼美国艺术博物馆）。他的海岸警卫队站及其景观的组成是相似和适当的清洁。前景中的水和岩石被描绘成松散、清澈的颜色，车站各个山墙的重复角度，由从屋顶升起的旗杆的细长垂直线所打断，被更紧密地描绘出来。这是一片阳光明媚、宁静的风景，尽管如此，它的主题暗示了从海洋中危险救援的更加黑暗的可能性。霍珀在1923之前在水彩画方面的工作很少。然而，不久，他的妻子乔，也是一位艺术家，鼓励他利用媒体进行户外研究，之后他就表现出对这种媒介的掌握。

On his repeated summer visits to Cape Elizabeth, Maine, Hopper painted several views of the Two Lights lighthouses and a Coast Guard station that stood in an adjacent cove. In Hopper's ledger, this location, with its white sand and vivid blue water, is described as having a "very clean & swept look" (Artist's ledger, Whitney Museum of American Art). His composition of the Coast Guard station and its landscape is similarly and appropriately clean. The water and the rocks in the foreground are painted in loose, limpid washes of color, and the repeated angles of the station's various gables, punctuated by the slender vertical of the flagpole that rises from its roof, are more tightly delineated. This is a sunny, tranquil landscape whose subject nonetheless alludes to the darker possibilities of dangerous rescues from the ocean. Hopper had worked very little in watercolor before 1923. However, he soon demonstrated a mastery of the medium after his wife Jo, who was also an artist, encouraged him to utilize it for his outdoor studies.
