<p>[QUOTE=&quot;umtrr-author, post: 177031, member: 5719&quot;]Perhaps part of the question should be, &quot;the image&quot; or &quot;the stylized image&quot;?&nbsp; How much like the actual monarchs, for example, did the images look?&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>In terms of the images of Liberty, it&#039;s kind of interesting to consider what the images looked like over time.&nbsp; Given the current obsession with &quot;thin is in,&quot; would the Standing Liberty have been put on a diet today, for example?&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>I think it&#039;s fair to say that the SBA tried to capture a realistic image of Susan B.
