Q5.
The height of the Statue from her heel to the top of her head is 111 feet, 6 inches and there are 154 steps
from the pedestal to the head of the Statue of Liberty. Another interesting fact is connected with the
Statue’s crown. There are seven rays on her crown, one for each of the seven continents, 9 feet in length
each and weighing as much as 150 pounds.
Q6.
The island, which has been the Statue’s home for more than 120 years, was officially renamed Liberty
Island in 1956. Today this imposing work of art continues to capture the imagination of all who see her,
whether in person or as the subject of countless photographs or artistic renderings.
Q7.
In spite of the fact that nowadays millions of people come to Liberty Island every year, there are some facts
that quite few people know. For example many people think that the Statue has always been green. In fact
is that the copper covering of the Statue of Liberty is 3/32 of an inch thick and the light green color, called
a patina, is the result of natural weathering of the copper.
