Statue of Liberty ArrivalIn 1885, the Statue of Liberty arrived in New York Harbor from France. The hand and torch of the Statue of Liberty had been displayed at the 1876 Centennial Exhibition, in Philadelphia, ten years before the rest of the statue was completed by French sculptor Frédéric Auguste Bartholdi. The engineer for the framework was Gustave Eiffel (also known for his Eiffel Tower). In 1884, work on the statue was finished, and it was displayed in Paris while the U.S. prepared the pedestal. It was then shipped, dismantled, in 214 enormous crates, on the steam-and-sail gunboat Isèreto the U.S. Its reassembly took a year, and it was finally dedicated on 28 Oct 1886, by President Cleveland in the presence of its sculptor.« |
