Statue of Liberty

This bronze statue measures 2.85 meters and depicts a woman holding a torch in her right hand and a tablet in her left hand.

The statue was placed in Luxembourg Gardens in 1906 and transferred to the Musée d'Orsay in 2012 after degradation and theft of its torch.

This statue is an exact replica of the original model created by Auguste Bartholdi, who also designed the Statue of Liberty in New York.

Visitors can examine this statue in the main hall of the Musée d'Orsay, where it stands at the beginning of the museum tour.

A new replica has replaced the original statue in Luxembourg Gardens since 2013 to maintain this symbolic presence in the district.
