It resembles Libertas, the Roman goddess of freedom, dressed in a robe and holding a torch in her right hand. French artist Frédéric Auguste Bartholdi sculpted the statue and donated it to the United States in 1886. The Statue of Liberty was a welcoming site to immigrants who came to America by boat, through Ellis Island.
