Description
“Mural entitled “Scenic and Historic Booneville” painted in 1943. This is one of the murals that’s title does not match it’s content. The artist had wanted to paint a minor, local Civil War skirmish–hence the title. The Section of Fine Arts said no. This mural is still in the old PO building–now the Chancery Court Building.”
