This statue is actually called by many names such as, lady justice, scales of justice, and blind justice. Each part of the statue represents something different. This statue dates back to ancient Greek and Roman times, and the lady in the statue is themis, the goddess of law and justice. The scales that she holds represents the impartiality that justice is served and the sword represents the power that is held by those making this decision. Artists in the 16th century began showing the lady blindfolded to show that justice is not subject to influence, and because of this addition the statue earned the name Blind Justice.
