Description: The brass and translucent glass eight-pointed star symbolizing Minnesota's motto, "L’Étoile du Nord" (The Star of the North) is set in a circle on the floor of the rotunda of the Minnesota State Capitol below the central dome. The star motif is then repeated in the marble floor of the rotunda with the points of the star using red Numidian marble from the Nile River, Egypt. Photo by Zack Mensinger
