A green Statue of Liberty
Upon her final arrival in New York following the disaster, Rose is shown gazing up at the stunning Statue of Liberty, which seems to be glowing green with a golden hue. While this makes great sense now, it didn’t make as much sense in 1912.
The statue was closer to its original brown color back then than it was when it was truly green. The statue’s current hue changed throughout the course of more than 35 years. The original flame was lighted from within, and the golden flame was an afterthought, added only in 1986 to commemorate the statue’s 100th anniversary.
