When did the Statue of Liberty turn green?
For more than twenty years, the Statue of Liberty, originally known as "Liberty Enlightening the World," was dark brown, only changing to its familiar verdant hue close to the time of America's entry into the First World War. By the early 1920s, the entire monument turned green. The dark color of the statue in the early years gives quite accidental plausibility to proponents of a theory that the model for the work was black and that she was donated to the United States to celebrate the end of American slavery. August Bartholdi, however, claimed he gave the sculpture the stern features of his mother.
