This bronze Statue of Justice depicts Themis
In this work, Themis holds a sword in one hand, a sign of power and punishment, scales in the other indicating impartiality, and a blindfold to ensure fairness of judgment. The blindfold, bare knee, and hand of justice are other symbols associated with the judicial institution.
The Statue of Justice is one of the most famous in the world. Although this work is generally not attributed to a famous sculptor, the fact that it adorns so many courthouses around the world has made it one of the best-known sculptures, carrying many names, the most popular being "Lady Justice," "Themis Statue," and "Goddess of Justice."
Goddess of justice and law in Greek mythology
This statue dates back to Greek and Roman times. Themis (meaning "divine law"), daughter of Uranus and Gaia, is the goddess of justice and law. Well known for her clairvoyance, she is the wife and advisor of Zeus. Her equivalent in Roman mythology is Justitia. The scales she holds represent the impartiality and ultimate judgment with which justice is rendered, and the sword signifies the power held by decision-makers.
This depiction of a historical work is generally found in law offices, or other roles closely tied to law and respect for justice.
