become a symbol of freedom and the United States, and has also been a famous tourist

the United States for America’s support during the Great French Revolution. The sculpture
is a female figure representing the Roman goddess of freedom, Libertas. On the right hand
of the Statue holds a torch and on its left hand holds a tablet containing an inscription of a
th
text which is the date of the Amreican Declaration of Independence, July 4 , 1776. At her
