Here is a mural depicting a Civil War scene. I’ve been told it may be troops of Mosby’s Partisan Rangers. It shows information being passed on to a Confederate Officer. The troops seem to be resting, noting the three soldiers playing cards. Being this mural is in downtown Warrenton, it’s a pretty good bet that it’s a depiction of Mosby’s men or the Virginia Cavalry. Also note the depiction of someone looking out the window. This is also part of the mural. There are also two other large murals that our near! All are Civil War related. The mural is on the back of a business that is located on S 4th Street in Old Town Warrenton. Unknown the artist?
