About this title:

Synopsis: She stands in New York Harbor, her weathered copper façade a welcoming symbol of hope and freedom that resonates in the hearts of every nation on earth. Lady Liberty was originally presented by France in 1866, designed by French sculptor Frédéric-Auguste Bartholdi as a gift to the people of America in celebration of our friendship and our shared values of democracy and social enlightenment. The full story of the statue's journey is revealed through vintage photographs and text, from raising the funds to create the project to the vast engineering challenge of transforming a four-foot clay model into the finished 150-foot tall icon whose powerful meaning has been attested to by countless waves of immigrants arriving on our shores.
