The Spirit of Detroit is a monument with a large bronze statue created by Marshall Fredericks and located at the Coleman A. Young Municipal Center on Woodward Avenue in Detroit, Michigan. Cast in Oslo, Norway, the 26-foot (7.9 m), 9-ton sculpture sits on a 60-ton marble base and it was the largest cast bronze statue since the Renaissance.[1][2][3][4]
In its left hand, the large seated figure holds a gilt bronze sphere emanating rays to symbolize God.[2] The people in the figure's right hand are a family group symbolizing all human relationships.[2]
Fredericks did not originally name the sculpture and the name came from the citizens of Detroit[3] based on an inscription from 2 Corinthians (3:17) on the marble wall behind it:[2]
"NOW THE LORD IS THAT SPIRIT
AND WHERE THE SPIRIT OF THE
LORD IS, THERE IS LIBERTY."
II CORINTHIANS 3:17
