About this person
Frédéric Auguste Bartholdi was born in Colmar on 2 August 1834 and trained as both sculptor and painter. His career turned on a single commission that consumed much of his adult life: Liberty Enlightening the World, the statue he designed for New York Harbor. The work became universally known as the Statue of Liberty and stands as his defining achievement. He died in Paris on 4 October 1904.
