On Ellis Island there
stands a lady of liberty for those who look for opportunity in a new world, and
this beacon has her torch held high to proudly symbolize the freedom of one
nation. As many immigrants arrive in America, this Lady was and is there to
greet them with a silent message of hope, freedom, and a chance for the American Dream.
The Statue of Liberty has long been a symbol of
hope to Americans and immigrants to this country. The Statue officially
celebrated her 100th birthday on October 28, 1986. French sculptor Frederic Auguste Bartholdi created the design of the statue. The French gave the Statue to the people of the
United States in recognition of the friendship established during the American
Revolution. Over the years, the Statue of Liberty's symbolism has grown to
include freedom and democracy. This statue is among the most visited monuments
in the United States of America.
