My image of the Statue of Liberty, from various media growing up, was of this mammoth statue as tall as … well, as the actual statue plus its based, and then some. I was actually disappointed when I finally saw it, at a distance, in person.
But seeing a picture like this, I can see why it would have made a large impression on immigrants arriving in New York ….
