History in Photos
1986
On October 27, 1986, after years of effort, Lee Iacocca, the Chairman of the Statue of Liberty/Ellis Island Foundation saw his dream come true. The statue had reopened and the Ellis island restoration project was well along. That evening, the Ellis Island Medals of Honor Awards dinner was held. The three Mort Künstler paintings were featured at the dinner. Freedom appeared on the cover of the Anniversary Journal. The late Cardinal O’Connor, Muhammad Ali, and Lee Iacocca posed in front of the Künstler painting The Great Hall.
From the uniforms and equipment to the landscape and the horizon,...[Künstler] captured the very essence of the futility and hopelessness of the battle that symbolizes the public’s perception of the struggle. It, unquestionably, is the freshest approach and should supersede all the others at once.
