The seal adopted by the Second Republic in 1848, is the present seal of France. Jean-Jacques Barré made a seated woman representing Liberty holding a fasces in her right hand and her left hand rests on a helm upon which stands a Gallic rooster, its claw resting on top of a globe.There is also an urn bearing the initials "SU" (suffrage universel: universal suffrage) that reminds us of the great innovation of 1848, namely direct universal male suffrage. At the foot of the woman are symbols of the fine arts and agriculture. There is an inscription at the top "République française démocratique une et indivisible" (Democratic French Republic, One and Indivisible) and the other two mottoes also inscribed on the seal are: "Au nom du peuple français" (in the name of the French people) and "Egalité, Fraternité, Liberté" (Equality, Fraternity, Liberty) on the reverse side.
