It's a higlhy stylized scripted G; the final inward curl of the larger/lower part, you'll notice, is on the G line of the treble staff.

Similarly, the bass clef is a stylized scripted F; the two dots are aligned over the F line of the bass staff.

And if you ever wonder why sometimes the time signature has an upper-case C, it's because 4/4 time used to be called "common time." (2/4 time is half of 4/4, so it's a C with a line through it.)

The Treble-clef, also called G-clef or violin clef, identifies the note on the staff from which all the other notes are referenced. The word clef means key. The lower inside loop of the Treble-clef goes around the second line from the bottom of the staff. This line represents G above middle C on the piano. (An 8 below the Treble-clef would indicate an octave below this.)
The Treble-clef or G-clef symbol originated by using the letter G, representing G above middle C.
