EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lithograph from 1885 captures the stunning portrayal of Ramie Austen as the Statue of Liberty. The photograph, taken by an American photographer in the 19th century, showcases Austen's remarkable talent as she poses as Bartholdi's iconic statue. This image was part of a publicity campaign for a Broadway show in New York, where Austen undoubtedly mesmerized audiences with her theatrical prowess. The photograph beautifully highlights the neoclassical features of both Austen and Lady Liberty herself. Against a backdrop of stars and a dramatic sky, Austen stands tall on a pedestal, holding up the torch that symbolizes freedom and enlightenment. Her flowing robe adds to the allegorical nature of this piece, creating an enchanting visual spectacle. As an advertisement for entertainment during that era, this litho successfully captures attention with its striking composition and powerful symbolism. It serves as a beacon for those seeking artistic expression and inspiration within the world of theater. Preserved by CNAM (Conservatoire National des Arts et Metiers) in Paris, this print is now part of eArchives Charmet collection. Its timeless beauty continues to captivate viewers today while reminding us of our shared values and aspirations embodied by one of America's most iconic landmarks - The Statue of Liberty.
