Statue of Liberty feet and shackles commemorating abolition of slavery

Summary[edit]

Description
English: This is a derivative work of the Statue of Liberty's feet on the platform that few get to see except from aerials and drones. It was photographed by the U.S. National Park Service, and the changes in perspective, coloring, and background was the work of Betty Wills to emphasize the broken shackle and chains. The French gifted the U.S. the Statue of Liberty for the Union's victory in the U.S. Civil War. The broken shackle and chains memorializes the commencement of abolition in America, and commends former President Abraham Lincoln for his Emancipation Proclamation. The sonnet, The New Colossal, changed the intent of Lady Liberty by making it about immigration rather than abolition and liberty which was a message from the French to other countries.
