New York Landmark Statue of Liberty Print | Limited Edition of 10
Black and White Statue of Liberty Wall Art Print
I’ve stood before many monuments in my travels, but few hit like this one. The Statue of Liberty isn’t just a landmark—it’s a moment frozen in metal. A symbol of hope, grit, and the idea that you can start over, rebuild, become something more. I wanted to photograph it differently—not the textbook postcard shot, but something raw, something that captured the mood I felt in the air that day.
It was one of those brooding mornings over New York Harbour where the light plays tricks and the clouds roll in with a mind of their own. The sky wasn’t blue—it was grey and full of intention. Perfect. I framed the statue off-centre just slightly, letting her rise into that weighty sky. She looks eternal like that, untouchable. The monochrome finish strips the colour away, so all you see is form, shadow, and steel. She’s not just standing there. She’s watching.
There’s something about seeing the Statue of Liberty in person that the travel guides don’t mention. The sheer scale, sure—but it’s the silence that gets you. Even with the crowds and the camera clicks, there’s this hush. A reverence. You can almost hear the waves below whispering stories of those who saw her first—through ship portholes, from cargo decks, from dreams that brought them across oceans.
This image aims to bring that feeling home. Not just to decorate a wall, but to anchor a space. It’s one of those pieces that sparks conversation—where were you when you saw her first? What did she mean to you?
For those who see New York not as a city but as a statement, this print is a quiet tribute. It’s about resilience, arrival, and identity. The clouds may shift and swirl, but Lady Liberty holds her torch steady.
To see more images with this kind of presence, have a look through my Landmark Photography Collection, or dive into the energy of the borough with the Manhattan Photography Collection.

Limited Edition of 10
This photograph is released as a signed and numbered limited edition of only 10 prints in total across all available sizes combined—not 10 prints in each size.
Every size is drawn from the same edition. Whether the photograph is purchased as a small print or at the largest available size, it uses one of the 10 edition numbers.
I personally sign and number each print on the reverse, and every print is accompanied by a signed Certificate of Authenticity recording its title, dimensions, medium, edition number, and date of issue.
Once all 10 prints have been sold, the edition will be permanently closed. No additional numbered editions of the photograph will be produced in another size or format.
Premium Archival Fine Art Prints
I personally produce every photograph using archival pigment inks on premium archival paper with a subtle luster finish.
The paper provides rich tonal depth, excellent fine-detail reproduction, and a refined surface that reduces distracting glare under normal indoor lighting. It is especially well suited to both color and black-and-white photography.
Each photograph is sold as an unframed fine art print, allowing it to be framed according to the collector’s space and personal style.
Before a print leaves my studio, I carefully inspect it for color, tonal accuracy, surface quality, and overall presentation. Nothing is outsourced, and every finished print passes through my hands.
Worldwide Delivery Included
Every print is personally produced, inspected, signed, numbered, and carefully packaged by me at my studio in Haliburton, Ontario, Canada.
Worldwide delivery is included in the listed price, so there is no additional shipping charge added during checkout. I select an appropriate tracked delivery service based on the destination, print size, and current shipping requirements.
Delivery times vary by destination and may be affected by customs processing or circumstances beyond my control.
Because I also travel extensively to create new photographic work, studio dispatch may occasionally be delayed while I am away. When that happens, the print will be produced and shipped as soon as I return to the studio.
