Who took this photo called Soul of Freedom?

This is a classic photograph by artist Jerry Youseman. There are also Hands and the Human Body in Front of the House and Angels, both of which are classics.

Jerry Youseman is a pioneer of non-documentary photography and post-image (re-composition) photography, which dominated the United States in 1960s. He is called "the magician of images" and "the master of darkroom". His works are not directly shot by the camera, but an abstract presentation of nature after manual editing. What's commendable is that in today's popular use of computer to instantly synthesize images, Youseman still does not change his original intention, and adopts the traditional darkroom technology, that is, images from different negatives are superimposed on one picture through multiple enlargers, thus forming an artistic image of "pure manual montage".
