EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a significant moment in the creation of one of the most iconic statues in history: the Statue of Liberty. Taken in Paris in 1884, the image shows the statue in various stages of completion, with scaffolding surrounding it as skilled sculptors meticulously chiseled away at the stone. The statue, a gift from France to the United States, was being crafted in the French capital before its grand journey across the Atlantic Ocean to New York Harbor. The Statue of Liberty, designed by French sculptor Frédéric Auguste Bartholdi, was a symbol of freedom and democracy. The statue's colossal figure, dressed in a robe and holding a torch aloft, was meant to represent Libertas, the Roman goddess of freedom. The statue's base was designed by American architect Richard Morris Hunt. The construction of the statue was a monumental undertaking, both in terms of its size and the logistical challenges involved in transporting it to the United States. The statue was cast in pieces in France, and each piece was carefully packed and shipped to New York. The statue's torch and the tablet she holds in her left hand were made of copper and gilded in gold. This photograph offers a rare glimpse into the intricate process of creating such a magnificent work of art. The statue's completion marked the culmination of years of planning, design, and hard work, and its eventual arrival in New York Harbor in 1885 was met with great fanfare and excitement. Today, the Statue of Liberty remains an enduring symbol of freedom and hope, drawing millions of visitors each year.
