Joyeux Anniversaire Amérique!
Yes, a petite version of our Lady Liberty resides in Paris! This is the original "life size" cast. She stands 15 feet tall in the beautiful Luxembourg Gardens, home of the French Senate. This was architect/sculptor Batholdi's miniature mold for our American Statue of Liberty.
