The Statue of Liberty (Liberty Enlightening the World) is a neoclassical sculpture on Liberty Island in the middle
of New York Harbor, in Manhattan, New York City.

to the United States from the people of France.
The statue is of a robed female figure representing Libertas, the Roman goddess of freedom, who bears a torch and a
tabula ansata (a tablet evoking the law) upon which is inscribed the date of the American Declaration of Independence, July 4, 1776.
A broken chain lies at her feet.
The statue is an icon of freedom and of the United States: a welcoming signal to immigrants arriving from abroad.
