In New York Harbor, President Grover Cleveland dedicated the Statue of Liberty on October 28, 1886.

Statue of Liberty Dedication Day

Statue of Liberty Dedication Day celebrates the Statue of Liberty, and commemorates the day on which it was dedicated in 1886. The idea for the statue was proposed by French historian Edouard de Laboulaye in 1865. France decided to build and give the statue to the United States to commemorate the centennial of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, the alliance between the two countries during the Revolutionary War, and the friendship that continued afterwards. An agreement was made that the statue would be paid for by the people of France, and the pedestal on which it would stand would be paid for by Americans. The project was delayed because of lack of funds from both countries, especially the United States, but the money was eventually raised. French artist Frederic-Auguste Bartholdi designed the statue, and its support system was engineered by Eugene-Emmanuel Viollet-le-Duc and Alexandre-Gustave Eiffel—who shortly afterwards became famous for his work on the Eiffel Tower.

In June 1885 the statue arrived in New York City in 214 packing crates, and was reconstructed on Bedloe’s Island—which was renamed Liberty Island in 1956. On October 28, 1886, the Statue of Liberty was dedicated. A red barge transported to the island those who wanted to see the event. President Grover Cleveland officiated, and a speech was given by Ferdinand de Lesseps, who was a French diplomat, and head of the Franco-American Union, a group that had been created in 1875 to facilitate the completion of the project. There was music and a gun salvo, and Bartholdi, the mastermind of the statue, was perched in the statue’s torch, and pulled a rope that removed the French flag from in front of Lady Liberty’s face, revealing it to the crowd.  That evening the torch was lit for the first time.

The statue stands 151 feet tall, and is made of a copper sheeting covering an iron framework.  Its pedestal is 154 feet in height, and is made of granite.  Besides holding a torch, Lady Liberty—who was based off of Libertas, the Greek god of freedom—holds a tablet in which the date July 4, 1776, is inscribed. The statue became an important symbol for immigrants, especially after nearby Ellis Island began processing them in 1892.  It was the first thing that they saw while entering New York Harbor, and many wrote home to their relatives in their home countries about it.  Emma Lazarus’ poem, “The New Colossus”, was eventually added to the pedestal, further cementing the relationship between immigrants and the statue.  It became a U.S. National Monument in 1924, and the National Park Service now oversees the whole island.  Today the statue stands as a universal symbol of freedom and liberty.

How to Observe

The best way to celebrate the day, is to visit the Statue of Liberty, or plan a trip to do so. A boat can be taken to Liberty Island, and the pedestal and crown of the statue can be explored.

The Statue of Liberty was originally called Liberty Enlightening the world. Her sculptor was Frédéric Auguste Bartholdi,and Alexandre Gustavo Eiffel was the structural engineer. Construction began 1875 in Paris, and finished in 1884.

Lady Liberty arrived in New York Harbor 1885, but funds were needed to erect her. Her arm was in Madison Square Park at 23rd St.,and anyone could pay 50 cents to climb to the torch balcony. Finally having the money for completion, President Grover Cleveland was able to dedicate her on 10/28/1886.

The Statue of Liberty weighs 225 tons. She is 305 feet,6 inches tall overall (including base). Her waistline is 35 feet. The seven rays on her crown represent the continents. A feature that is not visible due to pedestal height are the broken shackles around her feet. They represent lady Liberty's freedom from oppression and control.

حان الوقت للسفر إلى باريس الممطرة!

تعرض هذه اللوحة مشهداً صاخباً في الشارع، حيث يستخدم المعظم مظلّات ليحموا أنفسهم من المطر. على الجانب الأيمن، تنظر أم إلى إبنتيها وهما ترتديان أزياء مواكبة لموضة عام ١٨٨١ من أجل نزهة بعد الظهيرة. كما نرى سيدة تم ضبطها وهي تفتح مظلتها أو تغلقها، في إشارة إلى بدء المطر أو ربما توقفه قريباً.

ليس التركيز الأساسي للوحة في الوسط بل على اليسار، حيث يمكنكم رؤية شاب ذي لحية يبدو كأنه على وشك أن يوفر ملجأ لإمرأة تحمل صندوق قبعات. ومن المثير للإهتمام أنها لا ترتدي قبعة أو معطف واقٍ من المطر أو مظلة، وهو أمر غير معتاد بالنظر إلى الطقس. إنها مساعدة صانع قبعات أو خياطة ملابس نسائية صُورت من قبل سوزان فالادون، حبيبة رينوار، وفنانته، وموضوعه المتكرر، هي وإحدى الفتاتين على اليمين ذات التارة والعصا تنظران إلينا مباشرةً بينما بقية الناس منشغلين بأنشطتهم.

على الرغم من أن التكوين يبدو طبيعي، إلا أن زوايا المظلات مرتّبة بعناية لخلق أشكال هندسية ويمكنكم رؤية عناصر دائرية كصندوق قبعة المرأة وتارة الفتاة. تسود الألوان الزرقاء والرمادية اللوحة مع نمط من المظلات في الأعلى وملابس الأشخاص في الأسفل.

I'm going to be honest. When I began, I thought there were four nineteenth century vampire stories. Five if you count Dracula's Guest. I've made a huge mistake.
