To the sculptor form is everything and is nothing. It is nothing without the spirit - with the idea it is everything.
- Victor Hugo, May 13, 1885
Lord Bartholdi:"I am going to give you some GOOD advise."
Miss Jeanne-Emilie:"Oh, pray don't. One should never give a WOMAN anthing she can't wear in the evening."
-S.K. (with a help from Oscar W.) in N.Y.C., October 30, 2001.
Address-Liberty Island, New York Harbor
The Statue of Liberty:
The Statue of Liberty, more formally known as Liberty Enlightening the World, stands at the mouth of the Hudson River in the harbor of New York City as a welcome to all: returning Americans, visitors, and immigrants alike. The sculptor was Frederic Auguste Bartholdi; Gustave Eiffel (of Eiffel Tower fame) created the armature.
-Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopedia.
Many people believed Charlotte Bartholdi (1801-1891) was the model for the statue. Others thought it was based on her son's early drawings for a never-commissioned statue in Egypt. The sculptor's true inspiration for his masterpiece remains a mystery.
