Peace Symbol - History, Meaning, and Modern Use #3078434 (License: Personal Use)

This high-contrast black-and-white image shows the internationally recognized peace symbol, originally created by Gerald Holtom for the Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament (CND) in 1958. Its design combines the semaphore signals for “N” and “D” (nuclear disarmament) within a circle, symbolizing unity and hope. Today, it’s widely adopted across activism, fashion, art, and digital media as a universal sign for peace and social justice.

Used on websites about activism, history, graphic design, or social movements; appears in educational content, protest imagery, merchandise, and UI icons to convey pacifism and solidarity.
