The Story Behind the Statue
The Kissing Soldier and Nurse statue was inspired by Alfred Eisenstaedt’s famous photograph taken on August 14, 1945 – VE Day.
The spontaneous kiss between a U.S. Navy sailor and a nurse became a timeless symbol of hope, freedom and national pride.
Today, the moment remains a powerful reminder of peace after conflict and the joy of returning home.
