Treasure Island's Murals
Past:
Two prominent examples of the Island's history with murals are Miguel Covarrubias' Pageant of the Pacific mural set and Diego Rivera's epic mural The Marriage of the Artistic Expression of the North and of the South on this Continent now commonly referred to as his Pan American Unity mural. Both were created as part of the 1930-1940 Golden Gate International Exhibition, and continue as vital elements of San Francisco's artistic heritage to this day.
