Chief Red Jacket (1750–1830) - a photo on Flickriver

            This detailed bronze sculpture of Seneca Chief Red Jacket (1750–1830) was erected in 1851. Red Jacket, or Sagoyewatha, negotiated with the new United States government after the Revolutionary War and signed the Treaty of Canandaigua in 1794, where President George Washington presented him with a large oval peace medal (depicted in the statue). His name was derived from the embroidered red jacket the British gave him in recognition of his service. Upon his death, his body was interred in the Reservation Cemetery, but re-interred in Forest Lawn Cemetery in 1884.

Forest Lawn Cemetery, at 1411 Delaware Avenue in Buffalo, New York, is a Victorian rural cemetery established in 1849. Over 161,000 former residents of the "City of Light" are interred within its 269 acres, including U.S. President Millard Fillmore and the 49 victims of the Colgan Air Flight 3407 crash. True to its name, Forest Lawn is also an important arboretum, with over 3,500 trees spread over its sprawling grounds. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1990.
