Everyone knows this famous landmark of the United States, the Statue of Liberty! Millions of people are travelling to New York each year in order to see it, and it is really an impressive statue with a height of 151 feet. 

But did you know that the statue is actually French? It was designed by a French sculptor named Frederic Auguste Bartholdi, while the metal framework was made by none other than the engineer of the Eiffel Tower, Gustave Eiffel. 

The statue spent some time at the World’s Fair in Paris and it was then offered as a gift to the United States when they celebrated 100 years for the American Revolution. It was a symbol of freedom, but also of the friendship between the 2 countries. 

Embark on a vivid journey to one of the United States' most iconic monuments with YouColor's free coloring pages. The Statue of Liberty, not just an emblem of New York's skyline but a French-crafted beacon of freedom, stands tall at 151 feet. Created by French sculptor Frederic Auguste Bartholdi and engineered by Gustave Eiffel, this statue symbolizes the enduring friendship between France and the United States, a gift during the centennial of the American Revolution.

The Statue's seven spikes crown isn't just a fashion statement—they represent the world's seven continents and oceans, embodying global unity and freedom. More than a stunning spectacle for tourists, it also served as a guiding lighthouse for sailors navigating the waters around New York.

Crafted from copper, the Statue of Liberty is as dynamic as it is historic, with its verdant patina arising from natural oxidation—a testament to its 600 annual encounters with lightning. This majestic figure has been immortalized in numerous films, from the action-packed 'Independence Day' (1996) to the dramatic 'The Day After Tomorrow' (2004).
