Peace Symbol - History, Meaning, and Modern Use #205426 (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 makes it ideal for print, digital media, and protest art.

Used on websites about history, activism, graphic design, or social movements; appears in educational content, museum exhibits, merchandise, and advocacy campaigns targeting users seeking symbolic meaning or visual assets for peaceful messaging.
