Rochester NY - Fun at the Memorial Art Gallery

The Memorial Art Gallery of the University of Rochester is located at 500 University Avenue in Rochester, NY. Here is a picture of the gallery's main entrance.




































The gallery has an ongoing exhibition called "Seeing America" featuring American paintings and sculpture from the 19th and 20th centuries. The sculpture pictured below is called "Indian Group - The Last Shot (1880)" by Randolph Rodgers.




































There was enough light in the exhibition area to get decent depth of field. So, in switching the Canon G10 to macro shooting mode and getting close up, the Native American is now huge.
