EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a significant moment in the history of one of America's most iconic landmarks - the Statue of Liberty. Taken in 1883, it showcases the unfinished pedestal upon which Lady Liberty proudly stands today. The image reveals a group of men diligently working on the construction, surrounded by rubble and planks. The pedestal was built on the foundation of an abandoned fort located on Bedloe Island in New York Harbor. This strategic location adds to its historical significance as it served as a symbol of hope for immigrants arriving in America during that era. The photograph's monochromatic tones emphasize the starkness and rawness of this incomplete structure, highlighting both its grandeur and potential. It serves as a reminder that even monumental achievements require perseverance and dedication. As part of The Granger Collection's Carousel Collection, this print offers viewers a glimpse into late 19th-century America. It allows us to reflect upon our nation's rich history while appreciating the immense effort put into creating such an enduring symbol. Whether displayed in homes or public spaces, this powerful image invites contemplation about American identity, immigration, and unity. As we gaze at this snapshot frozen in time, we can't help but feel inspired by those who labored tirelessly to bring Lady Liberty to life atop her majestic pedestal.
