Statue of Liberty, Bronze statue at Liberty Island, United States
The copper statue represents a female figure holding a torch in her right hand and a tablet inscribed with July IV MDCCLXXVI in her left.
The statue arrived in New York Harbor in 1885 as 350 pieces packed in more than 200 crates and required four months of assembly.
The seven spikes of the crown represent the seven seas and seven continents, extending the message of liberty across the globe.
Access to Liberty Island requires purchasing tickets from Statue City Cruises, which operate ferries from Battery Park and Liberty State Park.
The statue's original copper color changed to green through natural oxidation, creating a protective layer that prevents further deterioration.
