September 21 is the International Day of Peace. Peace is what each of us must strive for in order to preserve our humanity. To preserve humanity means to show the next generations that life is created for kindness and love🕊️
The symbol of peace is a dove with an olive branch. The very first version of the emblem was developed by Pablo Picasso for the World Peace Congress in 1949.
Later on, there were many variants of the dove from the artist: from the classic drawing in the style of realism, with the detail of the bird and the absence of a branch - to cubist image, where the dove with a branch flies over the rainbow and a pile of weapons.
But why the dove? The bird has always acted as a symbol of peace and good news in Christianity. When Noah sent a variety of birds in search of land after the Flood, a white dove brought him an olive branch, heralding the proximity of land.
