- Lot Description
Ron Sloan (American, B. 1950) "U.S. Flag and Statue of Freedom" Signed lower right. Original Mixed Media painting on Illustration Board.
Provenance: Collection of James A. Helzer (1946-2008), Founder of Unicover Corporation.
This artwork originally appeared on the Fleetwood First Day Cover for the U.S. 22c Flag Over Capitol coil stamp issued March 29, 1985.
As it has for nearly two hundred years, the American Flag flies high above the stone and marble building of the United States Capitol. Countless hearts have been filled with pride at the site of this revered structure, for no other building -- not even the White House -- is more closely linked to the great strength and glory of the United States of America. It stands at the heart of America's democratic government ... and is the focal point of the resounding deeds, ideals, and aspirations of the American people. High atop the majestic Dome, the Capitol is crowned with a great bronze goddess known as the "Statue of Freedom." The work of American sculptor Thomas Crawford, the Statue is shaped as a classically robed woman holding a wreath resting on a shield in one hand and a sword in the other. Crawford had originally designed her as "Armed Liberty" with the soft feathered cap worn by freed Roman slaves, but changed her headdress to a helmet of eagle feathers after objections by Jefferson Davis. Molded in Crawford's Rome studio and later cast in bronze in a Washington foundry, Freedom was finally raised on to the Capitol Dome on December 2, 1863. The United States Flag, bearing thirty-five stars representing all the states of the Union -- both North and South -- fluttered overhead as spectators cheered. Today, the majestic Statue of Freedom still ennobles the Capitol's Dome.
