Every country has symbols that represent its beliefs and way of life. In our country, one of our symbols is the Statue of Liberty. For the immigrants who immigrated to America, it was the symbol of a new beginning and an opportunity to be part of the American dream.
The courage and spirit of the immigrants was spread throughout America. A large number remained in New York and in the eastern part of the country. Many migrated up to Canada, and others headed west and to the south. Wherever they went, they were - and still are - an example to the world of what people can do with honesty, determination and perseverance.
I wanted to portray a sense of those feelings a new arrival
to this land may have had when looking at the Statue of
Liberty from Ellis Island, at a moment when all their
emotions were at a peak, with thoughts of what lay ahead
- a new life, a new beginning. -Jim Daly
These
are titles of the other prints in the Ellis Island series.
