Statue Of Liberty

In the shot of Rose arriving in New York, she does what all people would do in her spot. She looks up at the beautiful Statue of Liberty. Now, even though it’s raining, we can see that the color of the statue is its well-known green color and the flame is golden. Today, this all makes perfect sense, but back in 1912, when the Titanic was on the waters, the Statue of Liberty was much closer to the original brown color. After the Statue of Liberty was placed in 1886, it took more than 35 years to change color to the green we see today. In 1912, it had only been up for 26 years. Also, the golden flame we see was only put up in 1986 for the 100th anniversary. The original flame lit up from within.
