The famous Statue of Liberty in New York has a twin sister. The new “Lady Liberty” is not in the harbor, however, she has laid down very comfortably in a park in north Manhattan.

New York – The metropolis of New York temporarily has a second Statue of Liberty.

However, the new “Lady Liberty” does not stand with her arm raised in the city harbor like her famous twin sister, but leans on one hand in Morningside Park in the Harlem district in north Manhattan. The more than seven-meter-long statue by US artist Zaq Landsberg should be on view until April 2022.

Another new statue has recently stood in the middle of Manhattan: the US artist Sanford Biggers placed “Oracle”, an almost eight meter high bronze figure, directly in front of the Rockefeller Center.
