The
Lady Justice statue ranks as one of the most well
known statues in the world. Although, this statue
is not typically attributed to any one famous
sculptor, the fact that it adorns so many of the
world’s courthouses has rendered it one
of the more well known sculptures.
While
it goes by many names, the most popular are Lady
Justice, Scales of Justice, and Blind Justice.
The statue dates it origins from ancient Greek
and Roman times as the lady represented is Themis,
the goddess of justice and law. Well known for
her clear sightedness, she typically holds a sword
in one hand and scales in the other.
The
scales that she holds represent the impartiality
with which justice is served and the sword signifies
the power that is held by those making the decision.
During the 16th century, artists started showing
the lady blindfolded to show that justice is not
subject to influence. From this, the statue earned
the name Blind Justice.
