Description
Liberty and Prosperity - Broken Seal | Fine Art Photograph by Colleen Kammerer
~~
The Great Seal of the State of New Jersey; cracked and broken, shows signs of growth as a tiny flower blossoms.
The New Jersey coat of arms contains a horse's head; beneath that is a helmet, showing that New Jersey governs itself, and it has three plows on a shield to highlight the state's agriculture tradition, which shows why the state has the nickname "Garden State". The two Goddesses represent the State motto, "Liberty and Prosperity". Liberty is on the left. She is holding a staff with a liberty cap on it, and the word liberty underneath her. The goddess on the right is Ceres, goddess of agriculture. She is holding a cornucopia with prosperity written below her.
