Replica of Statue of Liberty

For the 1900 Exposition Universelle, sculptor Frédéric Bartholdi created a smaller version of the Liberty Enlightening the World, measuring 2.743 meters (nine feet) and at a scale of 1/16 of the original. This version was completed in 1889 and later donated to the Musée du Luxembourg. In 1906, it was displayed in the Jardin du Luxembourg, where it remained for over a century until 2011. Since 2012, it has been located in the entrance hall of the Musée d'Orsay, while a new bronze replica has been placed in the Jardin du Luxembourg.
