The Statue of Liberty, one of the most recognizable icons of the United States, has a captivating history that dates back to the late 19th century. A gift from the French people to the United States, the statue symbolizes the enduring friendship between the two nations and the ideals of liberty they both share.
Designed by French sculptor Frédéric Auguste Bartholdi, the statue depicts a woman holding a torch in her right hand, symbolizing the light that illuminates the path of freedom, and a tablet of stone in her left hand, inscribed with the date of the United States' independence, July 4, 1776. She stands upon a base that contains the inscription of Emma Lazarus' poem "The New Colossus," which celebrates America's hospitality and welcoming spirit.
The Statue of Liberty was assembled on Liberty Island, at the entrance to New York Harbor, and became a beacon of welcome for millions of immigrants arriving in the United States in search of a better life. It also witnessed significant events throughout history, including the attacks of September 11. The statue remains an iconic symbol of freedom, hope, and the promise of the United States, and its history serves as a constant reminder of the power of these values in shaping the nation.
