Benny Carter's rendering of the Statue of Liberty is a cute image representative of the spirit of New York City.
Rising high into the background, skyscrapers with illuminated windows surround the shore while streets packed with yellow taxis border the shoreline of the upper New York Bay. Holding her torch in addition to a pin with the US flag and an apple in her hand, the figure smiles broadly while her hair billows in the window.
