The background includes several structural components such as pillars, suggesting an industrial or naval setting. The open, grassy area around the lighthouse enhances the prominence of the structure.Gatun Lighthouse is a crucial navigational aid near the Gatun Locks of the Panama Canal, which were opened to ship traffic in 1914.
