The sculptor who designed the Statue of Liberty was Frédéric-Auguste Bartholdi, born into a well-to-do middle-class family in Colmar, France, on August 2, 1834.

Many people believed Charlotte Bartholdi (1801-1891), his mother, was the model for the statue. Others thought it was based on her son's early drawings for a never-commissioned statue in Egypt. The sculptor's true inspiration for his masterpiece remains a mystery.
