EDITORS COMMENTS
The Statue of Liberty, a symbol of freedom and democracy, stands proudly on Liberty Island in New York Harbor. This iconic American landmark, officially named "Lady Liberty," was a gift from the people of France to the United States in celebration of their alliance during the Revolutionary War. The statue, designed by French sculptor Frédéric Auguste Bartholdi and built by Gustave Eiffel, was completed in 1884. The image captures the essence of the statue's majesty and grandeur, with its copper green hue gleaming in the sunlight. The statue's torch, held aloft in her right hand, represents the enlightenment and knowledge that comes with freedom. In her left hand, she cradles a tablet inscribed with the date of the American Declaration of Independence, July 4, 1776. Tourists from all over the world gather to pay their respects to this iconic symbol of America. They come to take in the breathtaking view of the statue and the harbor, to learn about its history, and to capture memories of their visit. The Statue of Liberty is not just a symbol of American liberty, but a beacon of hope and freedom for people from all walks of life. This photograph, taken in the late 1800s, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when the Statue of Liberty was a new and awe-inspiring sight. The image is a testament to the enduring power of this symbol and the hope it represents, making it a cherished piece of American history and a must-see attraction for visitors to New York.
