The Historical Significance of the Statue of Liberty in America

The world-famous Statue of Liberty stands on Liberty Island in new york Harbor, symbolizing the lofty ideal of the American people for freedom.

For more than a century, the bronze statue of the Statue of Liberty standing on Liberty Island has become a symbol of the friendship between the American nation and the people of the United States and France, and has always expressed the lofty ideals of the American people for democracy and freedom.

185 1 year, louis bonaparte staged a coup to overthrow the second French Republic. One day, a group of * * * Republicans spread out their defense business in the street and started street fighting with political changers. At dusk, a young girl loyal to * * * and the regime, holding a burning torch, jumped over obstacles and shouted the slogan "Forward" and rushed at the enemy. Unfortunately, she was shot and killed. Since then, this brave girl holding the torch has become a symbol of the sculptor's pursuit of freedom. In addition, the image of the Statue of Liberty is based on Bater Di's later wife, and the face is taken from his mother.

The poem carved on the cornerstone of the Statue of Liberty in Emma Lazarus's sonnet The New Giant;

Welcome,

Those who are tired and poor,

Crowded together, eager to breathe freely,

Prosperity is abandoned,

Poor guy.

Put these homeless people

People who have suffered a lot.

Give it to me together.

I hold high the lamp of freedom!
