Battle of Yorktown, Revolutionary War Mural, Yorktown, Virginia





This mural of silhouettes is on a concrete wall on Read Street in historic Yorktown, Virginia, a small road connecting the Yorktown Beach and Riverwalk Landing to the historic district on the hills above. The first photo depicts soldiers on the field of battle; the second a cannon; the third, cannon and soldiers manning a redoubt; and, the last is an extended view of a larger part of the mural.

The murals are great in two tone colors. The silhouettes look like real shadows!

This is amazing and the colours are awesome. Let's hope they keep the hedge trimmed !

Hello
Does anyone know who painted this? I'm doing a college assignment on murals and wanted to use this one but can't find any details about it. Thank you
Brad
