Peace Symbol - History, Meaning, and Modern Use #205465 (License: Personal Use)

This minimalist black-and-white line drawing depicts the CND (Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament) peace symbol, created by Gerald Holtom in 1958. Its design combines the semaphore signals for “N” and “D” (nuclear disarmament) within a circle, later adopted globally as a broader emblem of peace, nonviolence, and counterculture movements. The clean, scalable vector-style rendering makes it ideal for print, digital media, and protest signage.

Used on websites about activism, history, graphic design, or social movements; appears in educational content, merchandise, posters, and digital campaigns promoting peace, unity, or anti-war messages. Matches user intent for symbolic imagery, historical reference, or design inspiration.
