English: Coat of arms of Zacatecas; Stamped with the royal crown with a single field, an elevation predominates that represents the emblematic hill of La Bufa, at whose feet the city was born in 1546, as a result of the discovery of the rich silver mines. In the most eminent part of the hill appears an image of the Virgin Mary, because this hill and the mines were discovered on the day the Catholic Church celebrates the feast of the Nativity of the Virgin; below, the monogram of Felipe II, as a testimony of whom he granted the coat of arms to the city. At the two upper ends of the shield float the sun and the moon in an intense blue sky. At the foot of the hill there are four portraits of people in the field of Captain Cristóbal de Oñate, main founders, miners and settlers of Zacatecas; below them appears the Motto Labor Vincit Omnia ("Labour Conquers All"), which was taken from a verse from the Georgics in which Virgil sings the apotheosis of work; …Labor omnia vincit, Improbus, et duris urgens in rebús egestas. (Hard work wins over everything, even the misery that it stimulates in the arduous tests). ; and on the border, five bundles of arrows and intertwined with another five bows, which are the weapons used by the aforementioned Chichimeca Indians.
Español: Escudo de Zacatecas; Timbreado de la corona real con un único campo, predomina una elevación que representa al emblemático cerro de La Bufa, en cuyos pies nace la ciudad en 1546, como producto del descubrimiento de las ricas minas de plata. En la parte más eminente del cerro aparece una imagen de la Virgen María, por haberse descubierto este cerro y las minas el día en el que la iglesia católica celebra la fiesta de la Natividad de la Virgen; abajo, el monograma del Felipe II, como testimonio de quien otorgó el escudo de armas a la ciudad. En los dos extremos superiores del escudo flotan el sol y la luna en un cielo de color azul intenso. En la falda del cerro hay cuatro retratos de personas en campo de el capitán Cristóbal de Oñate, principales fundadores, mineros y pobladores de Zacatecas; debajo de ellos aparece el Lema Labor Vincit Omnia ("El Trabajo Lo Vence Todo"), que fue tomado de un verso de las Geórgicas en el que Virgilio canta la apoteosis del trabajo; …Labor omnia vincit, Improbus, et duris urgens in rebús egestas. (Todo lo vence el trabajo ímprobo aún a la miseria que estimula en las arduas pruebas). ; y en la orla, cinco manojos de flechas y entremetidos con otros cinco arcos, que son las armas de que usaban los referidos indios chichimecas.
Français : Armoiries de Zacatecas ; Estampillée de la couronne royale avec un seul champ, une élévation prédomine qui représente la colline emblématique de La Bufa, aux pieds de laquelle la ville est née en 1546, à la suite de la découverte des riches mines d'argent. Dans la partie la plus éminente de la colline apparaît une image de la Vierge Marie, car cette colline et les mines ont été découvertes le jour où l'Église catholique célèbre la fête de la Nativité de la Vierge ; au-dessous, le monogramme de Felipe II, en témoignage de celui qui a accordé les armoiries à la ville. Aux deux extrémités supérieures du bouclier flottent le soleil et la lune dans un ciel d'un bleu intense. Au pied de la colline, il y a quatre portraits de personnes dans le domaine du capitaine Cristóbal de Oñate, principaux fondateurs, mineurs et colons de Zacatecas ; au-dessous d'eux apparaît la devise Labor Vincit Omnia ("Labour Conquers All"), qui a été tirée d'un vers des Géorgiques dans lequel Virgile chante l'apothéose du travail; …Labor omnia vincit, Improbus, et duris urgens in rebús egestas. (Le travail acharné l'emporte sur tout, même la misère qu'il suscite dans les épreuves pénibles). ; et à la frontière, cinq faisceaux de flèches et entrelacés avec cinq autres arcs, qui sont les armes utilisées par les Indiens Chichimeca susmentionnés.

This coat of arms was drawn based on its blazon which – being a written description – is free from copyright. Any illustration conforming with the blazon of the arms is considered to be heraldically correct. Thus several different artistic interpretations of the same coat of arms can exist. Sometimes, the design officially used by the armiger is likely protected by copyright, in which case it cannot be used here. Individual representations of a coat of arms, drawn from a blazon, may have a copyright belonging to the artist, but are not necessarily derivative works.
