Here the Statue of Liberty, the copper figure that greets arrivals in New York Harbor, carries a pointed message about women's work and expectations. The line on the poster argues that women must work harder than men just to be taken seriously. Artists who borrowed the statue's image usually drew on its status as a national emblem of freedom, which makes the claim sharper: the country's symbol of liberty, the poster suggests, has never been shared equally. The words belong to a long public debate over women's roles at work and at home. Look closely at the lettering and layout, which hint at the intended audience as much as the words do.
