Summary
George W. Bush has painted the moment he learned on Sept. 11 that the United States was under attack, revisiting one of the most replayed images of his presidency.
The image has endured for 25 years and was long mocked by comedians, used by political opponents and repeatedly featured in documentaries and retrospectives.
Bush turned to painting after leaving the White House in 2009, making art a prominent part of his post-presidency.
