Peace Symbol Icon - Universal Sign of Harmony and Nonviolence #2188062 (License: Personal Use)

This black-and-white peace symbol features a bold circular outline enclosing a vertical line intersected by two downward-sloping lines, forming a stylized semaphore signal for “N” and “D” (nuclear disarmament). Created by Gerald Holtom in 1958, it quickly transcended its origins to become a universal icon of pacifism, civil rights, and counterculture movements. Its minimalist, high-contrast design ensures instant recognition across cultures and media formats.

Used on protest signs, apparel, websites, educational materials, and social campaigns advocating peace, disarmament, or human rights; ideal for landing pages, blog headers, or advocacy toolkits where symbolic clarity and emotional resonance are key.
