From the guide

Lexington murals include the Millinery De Rousselot sign on the south-facing wall of Pumpkinseeds at the corner of Main and Washington Streets. It was created in 1992 for a scene in the movie Sommersby, a drama starring Jodie Foster and Richard Gere. The story took place in the years following the Civil War, and downtown Lexington looked much unchanged from the 1860s during filming! There is also a sunrise mural under the Nelson St Bridge.

About

The Millinery De Rousselot mural at the corner of Main and Washington Streets is a holdover from the movie Sommersby, filmed here in the summer of 1992. This Civil War-era love story starred Jodie Foster, Richard Gere, and Lexington’s very own Main Street.
