Here I attempted to catch Lady Liberty from a slightly different angle, although I have to admit I felt as if I was looking up her skirts. Thankfully there was plenty of 'fabric'! She holds a torch in her right hand and in her left is a tabula ansata 'July IV MDCCLXXVI' (July 4, 1776). She is a work a truly magnificent beauty, the detail being incredible. The fluency and detail of her copper shell is truly amazing.

What would she make of the current approach to the ‘tired and poor ‘.

Love this photo, it was my view as a child when we were on a class trip and I couldn't walk up the spiral staircase all the way. Too many kids and I got claustrophobic...
