Bollocks. There's more life in the chairs than the faces (amongst other things). Technically accomplished, I'm sure, but that's really not a big deal.

The Bushes look like they're ready for Madame Tussaud's, but that's pretty standard for presidential portraiture.

Is there some heaped allegory about chairs I'm missing?

But they're pretty uninteresting and pretty meh...

More a running joke that "pushing a chair forward" is the default presidential portrait pose, and has been for decades.

Surprised no one's commented on the Bush quote in the OP.  Guess it's low-hanging fruit.
