Virginia Landscapes - Broken Fence

Behind the Stone House at Manassas is a field that is fenced in part. Some of the fence has broken. This style of fence can be seen in numerous Civil War photos and there are many pieces of it scattered through the countryside.

Virginia Landscapes - Stone House

This month I am working on Virginia landscapes inspired by several trips to that beautiful state in recent years. This painting is of the Stone House at Manassas where two significant Civil War battles took place. The Stone House was used as a hospital. In the background you can see the Henry House on the hill. It was rebuild after being destroyed by shelling during one of the battles.
