(83,770 posts)We have Lady Liberty as well. Every once in awhile women play leading roles.
We are more balanced and even keeled. We have fought our entire lives for every advancement. We are The Mothers. The Teachers. We Birthed this Nation.
LIBERTY AND JUSTICE FOR ALL. The women will show you the way.

(90,686 posts)Qualities and virtues were given human form as gods and goddesses and that got carried over into 18th century America. )A bare breast on a female figure might indicate maternal nurturance, not sex, for instance.)
You can see this in the original Classical Greek architecture of Washington, DC. The men who designed our nation's Capitol had soaring overarching unity of design.
More can be discovered online. George Washington was a Mason, and Masonic imagery is also all over the place. It's a fascinating study.

I do remember John Ashcroft, former AG, covering up a statue behind him at a presser because of a bare breast.
