Lady Justice


The Lady Justice

The Lady Justice is most often depicted wearing a blindfold and holding some scales and a sword.
Lady Justice wears a blindfold to show that the judicial system does not judge depending on someones race, age, origin, sex etc.
She holds scales to represent the balance between good and bad.
She carries a double edged sword in her hand to symbolise the power of reason and justice which can be brandished at any side, for or against.
