A painting by Kehinde Wiley, the artist behind former President Barack Obama’s official portrait, has been removed from display at the U.S. Embassy in the Dominican Republic following criticism from Trump officials, The New York Times reported Monday.

The work titled “Young Artists After Siamesas 1960” was commissioned by the federal government in 2013, funded by taxpayers and displayed in the embassy’s main hall. It depicts four young Dominican artists — two of whom are standing and holding hands and another two who are seated — among a sea of flowers.

The painting was first displayed in the embassy in 2015. It was later covered with U.S. flag-themed tarp before it was ultimately taken down.

The State Department now says the “goal” is to rid itself of the work, telling The Washington Post that it’s talking to “legal representatives to ascertain whether the art can be sold.”

There are few details known to the public about the painting and the subjects featured in it, but if you ask the director of the State Department’s Art in Embassies program, it’s “very woke.”

“We worked very hard [for it to] get taken down,” said Erin Scavino, an ex-contestant on “The Apprentice” and wife of the White House’s deputy chief of staff Dan Scavino, told Sean Spicer on a recent episode of his podcast.

“It was aesthetically terrifying.”

Leah Campos, U.S. ambassador to the Dominican Republic, seemingly celebrated the painting’s removal in a social media video set to Twisted Sister’s “We’re Not Gonna Take It” earlier this month.

In a statement to the Times, a spokeswoman for the State Department failed to address the painting itself. She instead pointed to sexual assault allegations against Wiley that he has denied and comments he made on a different painting that he described as “a play on the ‘kill whitey’ thing.”

“The work of an individual with such violent and racist words and depictions has no place in the America First State Department,” the spokeswoman said.

Wiley, in a Town & Country article once highlighted on (and seemingly scrubbed from) the State Department’s website, said he found the subjects upon immersing himself in the local art scene.

“It’s always telling at any point in time to see who a society’s artists are,” said the artist while reportedly referring to “similarities between the skin color politics of Dominicans and Americans.”

“They are kind of a swatch of a nation’s issues, concerns, and obsessions.”

Wiley, who visited with art students in Santo Domingo while working on the painting, was asked to depict the subject’s personalities and the diversity of the Dominican Republic in the work, a spokesperson with the Art in Embassies program told the Observer in 2015.
