Experience the magnificence of the Statue of Liberty, one of the world’s most iconic monuments, with our free coloring page, available at you-color.com. Standing proudly before the New York City skyline, this universal symbol of freedom and democracy has welcomed millions of immigrants and visitors since its dedication in 1886.
A Gift from France to the World
Designed by French sculptor Frédéric Auguste Bartholdi and engineered by Gustave Eiffel, the visionary behind the Eiffel Tower, the Statue of Liberty was gifted to the United States by France to commemorate the centennial of the American Revolution. Its seven-spiked crown represents the seven continents and oceans, embodying global unity and hope.
At 151 feet tall, this copper statue initially shone a brilliant bronze before natural oxidation transformed it into the verdant green we see today. The Statue’s transformation, along with its resilience against lightning strikes—approximately 600 times a year—is a testament to its enduring strength and symbolism.
Did You Know?
Beyond the Statue’s history, New York City holds countless hidden stories. One such tale is the secret train platform under the Waldorf Astoria Hotel, used by the rich and famous in the early 20th century. President Franklin D. Roosevelt famously utilized Platform 61 to discreetly enter the hotel, revealing New York’s layered history of intrigue and innovation.
