Henry Kissinger appears here in the role of the Statue of Liberty, with the crown and torch reshaped around the secretary of state himself. The drawing is in India ink over pencil and dates to September 1973, when Kissinger was at the center of American foreign policy. Earlier that year he had helped negotiate the Paris accords that brought U.S. combat troops home from Vietnam. The subjects listed in the record, ethics and peace, point to the public debate over whether his diplomacy lived up to the ideals the statue stands for.
