Seen yesterday, this is Indian Encampment On The Lower St. Lawrence, an 1879 oil painting by William Raphael.
Here we have Waterfall, an 1866 oil painting by O.R. Jacobi.
I stepped out into the other of the two internal courtyards in the Gallery. This one features a reflecting pool at its heart.
A series of bronze sculptures are on one side.
Dancing On The Moon II is a 2016 sculpture by David Ruben Piqtoukun, an indigenous artist of the far north.
Here we have The Self Made Man, a 1928 bronze by Alfred Laliberte.
And this is Inspiration, a 1904 bronze by Louis-Philippe Hebert.
I leave off today with this painting. Charlotte Schreiber painted The Croppy Boy (The Confession Of An Irish Patriot) in 1879.
The bronze sculptures are beautiful. Dancing on the Moon II is a favorite. The dancing on the Moon are in the lyrics to a song I wrote years ago.
