The Statue of Liberty

Vocabulary

copper — мідяний, мідь harbour — гавань pedestal — n ’єдестал torch — смолоскип tablet — дощечка (з написом) shackle — кайдани, окови elevator — ліфт

The Statue of Liberty is the large copper statue that stands on Liberty Island in New York Harbour. Its proper name is «Liberty Enlightening the World». This statue is the largest ever made. The statue represents a proud woman, dressed in a loose robe that falls in graceful folds to the top of the pedestal on which the statue stands. The right arm holds a great torch raised high in the air. The left arm grasps a tablet bearing the date of the Declaration of Independence. A crown with huge spikes, like sun rays, rests on the head. At the feet is a broken shackle, which people seldom notice, symbolizing the overthrow of tyranny. The statue weighs 450,000 pounds. The torch gleams at night as a symbol of liberty shedding light upon the world.

An elevator carries visitors up the pedestal to the foot of the statue. At this point, an observation balcony affords a magnificent view of the harbour and the city. Visitors may climb a narrow spiral staircase from the pedestal as high as the crown on the statue's head. A ladder inside the arm leads to the torch but it is not for public use because it's too narrow.

Frederic Auguste Bartholdi designed this statue and chose its site. Bartholdi also spent a great deal of time and energy raising funds in France and the United States to bring the plan to completion.

France presented the monument to the United States on July 4,1884 as a symbol of friendship and of the liberty that citizens enjoy under a free form of government. The statue was shipped to the United States in 1885 and became a national monument.
