Went to Coit Tower a couple days ago. The view from the top over San Francisco is great, but the artwork inside the tower itself is both historic and impressive. The interior walls are covered with murals created by artists during the Great Depression as part of the Public Works of Art Project, one program in FDR's New Deal.

This is a segment of a much larger mural by Maxine Albro, Agriculture in California.
