View of the ruins of the Stone Bridge across Bull Run, destroyed by Confederate troops during the Battle of Bull Run. A man sits on the stone remains at the edge of a large gap in the bridge span. The dirt road of the Fauquier and Alexandria Turnpike cuts through the field in the background, which is covered with fallen trees and debris from the battle.
