The figure symbolises the right to liberty, property, equality, etc enshrined in the new Constitution of France. The figure on the right symbolises the law. The law tablet signifies equality before the law for all.
3 answer:
The two documents are consistent and convey the same idea that human beings are born equal and all citizens are equal before the law. However, the Constitution of 1791 did not give practical shape to these ideas.

Only some members of the Third Estate,
who were rich and propertied, would have gained from this Constitution. Members of the First and Second Estates would have been Dissatisfied as their privileges were abolished and they had to pay taxes.
Marat anticipates another revolution in which the poor will rebel against the rich persons of the Third Estate and overthrow them, just like they had done the noblemen and clergy.
