Top Collection Bronze Finish Lady Justice 12.5 inch Statue YB_2IYDBSSB

This is a Top Collection decorative figurine of Lady Justice - the personification of justice. Depictions of the Lady Justice dates to the Egyptian goddess Maat, who represented truth and order in ancient Egyptian society. Later ancient Greeks worshipped the goddess Themis who personified divine law and custom, and her daughter Dike who was always depicted carrying balance scale while ancient Romans revered Justitia who represented the morality of the justice system. Modern depictions of Lady Justice most closely resemble Justitia. Many depictions show her holding the sword in the right hand and scale in the left hand, but this product is one of a few where she holds the sword in the left hand and the scale in the right hand. The pair of balance scales represent the obligation of the law to weigh the evidence presented by both sides while the unsheathed double-edged sword signifies that justice is transparent and can rule against either side to protect the innocent. Lady Justice is seen blindfolded to show that she is unbiased and doesn't let outside factor influence decisions; representing the impartiality and objectivity of the law. She is stepping on a snake to show that she can crush evil or lies under her feet. Measuring 12.5 inches tall, this figurine of Lady Justice is superbly detailed and very intricate for its size.
