Among some things that you won’t see in the capitol any longer, such as stables on the first floor, is a unique three-paneled mural in the senate chambers depicting Indiana’s agricultural roots. The Leon Kroll mural was decried as depicting Bolsheviks, and two of the panels later ‘disappeared’ during a remodel. A mural in the house chambers by Eugene Savage, is less likely to elicit controversy, and is sure to please visitors and patriotic Hoosiers alike.
