And here we go again.........

The French gave America this magnificent gift because they had been inspired by both the American Revolution and the Constitution/Bill of Rights during their own rebellion against rule by a Monarchy.

It is a Neoclassical sculpture, and Bartholdi would never have ruined his Work with ANY facial type which was incongruent to his ART.

Also, in 1884 the majority of the population was Caucasian, as it is today. The French would not present this collosssal gift wearing the face of any but the majority race. It would have been rude and bizzare.
