Sydney's Museums

One of the great things about Sydney is the art.  My hotel was convenienently located within walking distance of the Museum of Contemporary Art, the Sydney Museum, the Australian Museum, the Art Gallery of New South Wales, and lots of galleries in the business district and on Circular Quay.  Here are some pieces that caught my eye.
