Robert Arneson’s Portrait of George portrays George Moscone, a former mayor of San Francisco in the late 1970s. The portrait is actually a bust, that sits on a column covered with graffiti and phrases in reflection to Moscone’s life and may have been deemed unusual due to its overly casual appearance in bright colors and irreverent nature.
