State Seal

The official seal shows a barefoot farmer plowing a field near St. Anthony Falls on the Mississippi River. The farmer's axe, gun, and powderhorn rest on a nearby stump, as he looks at an Indian riding a horse. Minnesota's state motto "L'Etoile du Nord," French for "star of the north," also appears on the seal.
