The Statue of Liberty was officially revealed to the world Oct. 28, 1886, in New York City's harbor, which affirmed the friendship between France and America.
The dedication ceremonies honored both the French and American people, as well as Statue of Liberty contributors, including renowned sculptor Frédéric-Auguste Bartholdi. Angelica Stabile is a lifestyle reporter for Fox News Digital.
Édouard René Lefèbvre de Laboulaye, often considered the "father of the Statue of Liberty" for thinking up the grand gesture, died in 1883 before the dedication.
