statue of liberty
Emancipation in stone
The Statue of Liberty is a colossal neoclassical sculpture on Liberty Island in New York Harbor, depicting a robed female figure holding a torch aloft.
A gift from France dedicated in 1886, it has become an iconic symbol of the United States, freedom, and welcome to immigrants arriving by sea.
The phrase statue of liberty in lowercase sometimes refers to a football play where the quarterback fakes a throw while a teammate takes the ball from his raised hand.
