What are the basic characteristics of American culture?

The Statue of Liberty, Barbie, American Gothic, Bison Nickel and Uncle Sam are called the five symbols of American culture. Since the Statue of Liberty was erected in new york Bay in 1886, it has always been the promise of new immigrants to the American dream. This statue was designed by a French artist to celebrate American independence and the alliance between the United States and France. It is said that the beautiful arm of the statue comes from the artist's wife, and the vicissitudes and resolute face comes from the artist's mother. Barbie, the doll queen, is the favorite doll of almost all girls and even adult women. Barbie was inspired by Barbara, the daughter of Handler, the co-founder of an American toy company. Based on a sexy German adult doll, they launched a decent and authentic American doll Barbie at 1959. Ironically, the trainer's daughter likes Barbie doll, but their son hates it. American Gothic may not be so famous, but the Gothic windows in the old house in the portrait, especially the solemn expressions of the farmer and the long-necked wife, made the painter famous overnight at 1930. This painting shows the solemn pride of American farmers. Bison nickels were issued from 19 13 to 1938, which is a memorial of famous artist James Earle Fraser to bison and Indians who were victims of the development of the western United States. The bison and Indians on the nickel coin are all created with real prototypes. Uncle Sam, an American alias, is tall, with white hair, a small white beard, a dark blue coat and a top hat dotted with stars. During the American Revolutionary War, an honest and diligent young man named Sam Wilson was responsible for testing the meat supplied to the American army. The meat tested was marked with EA-SA, where EA stands for the name of the meat company and US stands for the origin of the United States. Later, US was deliberately translated into Uncle Sam by a company employee; Since then, Uncle Sam's name has spread among the soldiers. During World War I and World War II, the artist Montgomery Flagg painted his image as Uncle Sam on the recruitment poster, and the image of Uncle Sam gained a lasting position.
