We are so sad to hear about the passing of the great Bay Area photorealist painter, Robert Bechtle. "San Francisco Nova" shows Benton Avenue in San Francisco, one of the familiar local neighborhoods Bechtle frequently painted, and is part of @flySFO's public art collection. This fantastic artwork is one of many he painted of San Francisco, and is on display post-security in Terminal 3, Boarding Area E. Robert Bechtle was 88. Rest In Peace.
