Fodor's Review:

The Universidad de Puerto Rico's Museo de Historia, Antropología y Arte (Museum of History, Anthropology and Art) has archaeological and historical exhibits that deal with the Native American influence on the island and the Caribbean, the colonial era, and the history of slavery. Art displays are occasionally mounted; the museum's prize exhibit is the painting El Velorio (The Wake), by the 19th-century artist Francisco Oller.
