Absolutely-peace – Posters 300g

This piece celebrates the iconic peace sign, created in 1958 by British designer Gerald Holtom for the Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament. The symbol ingeniously combines semaphore signals for “N” and “D” (Nuclear Disarmament) enclosed in a circle. What began as a specific anti-nuclear emblem has evolved into a universal symbol of peace that transcends language and cultural barriers—a testament to the enduring power of thoughtful design to communicate our most fundamental human aspirations.

The peace symbol itself is in the public domain and not subject to copyright protection. Gerald Holtom, who created it in 1958, never trademarked or copyrighted the design, as he wanted it to be freely used by all peace movements worldwide.
