Titled 'The Spirit of Freedom', the monument honors the US Presidency, Constitution,
and Bill of Rights. In 1987 the monument was officially authorized and commissioned
by President Ronald Reagan and Chief Justice Warren E. Burger. Sculpted
by Brett-Livingstone Strong, the official artist of the bicentennial in
celebration of the US Constitution and Presidency, this unique monumental
work of art weighs 27 tons and is constructed from the finest granite, bronze,
gold, and crystal.
The full scale artist proof is available including specific artist rights of the 50 US State limited edition, historic
photos, original documents including a collection of President Reagan's signatures
endorsing the artist's monumental work at Independence Hall. All original
documents of the artist's full-scale transcriptions of the US Constitution
were authorized by the National Archives, which houses the original Constitution
and the Bill of Rights documents. The appraised value of this extraordinary
and historic work of art exceeds $18 million.
