Timeless lady of Liberty

Lady Liberty, a icon of the United States. First sight people saw when arriving to the Americans as well as the first sight troops saw when returning from the Wars, also the last sight of many troops when leaving to Europe to defend her meaning.

 

La Liberté éclairant le monde, this copper-clad beauty of freedom, a gift to the United States from the people of France, to honor the alliance during the American Revolution. Designed by French sculptor Frédéric Auguste Bartholdi, its metal framework was built by the famous engineer Gustave Eiffel. The statue was dedicated on October 28, 1886. Viva la 🇫🇷
