dove of peace
In the distant past, pigeons were once regarded as messengers of love. For example, in ancient Babylon, pigeons were the divine birds around Hista, the goddess of love and education, and girls were called "pigeons of love" in life. It was not until the beginning of the era that pigeons were regarded as a symbol of peace. Genesis in the Old Testament records that after the ancient flood, Noah released a pigeon from the ark to find out whether the flood was over. God asked the pigeon to take back the olive branch, which showed that the flood was over and there was still hope on earth. Noah knew that the flood had begun to recede and that peace was coming. After the flood receded, a valley full of green trees and a quiet path with flowers appeared in front of all living things in the world. Since then, people have used pigeons and olive branches to symbolize peace. /kloc-the religious reform movement in the 0 th and 6 th centuries gave the pigeon a new mission and made it the embodiment of the "holy spirit." It was not until the17th century that pigeons were "reinstated" as messengers of peace again. Many cities in the German Empire issued a set of pigeons with an olive branch in their mouth, and the commemorative coin of "Holy Pigeon for Peace" was engraved at the bottom of the pattern. Schiller, an outstanding representative of Germany's hurricane movement, introduced pigeons into politics from a religious symbol of peace, and pigeons became heroic fighters again, no longer a symbol of hope without resistance. Picasso dove of peace
The pigeon as a symbol of world peace, and recognized by the world, when it began in Picasso. 1940, Hitler's fascist bandits captured the French capital Paris. At that time, Picasso was sitting in his studio in a depressed mood when someone knocked at the door. It was the old neighbor Mish, who told Picasso a tragic story with a bloody pigeon in his hand. It turns out that the grandson of the old man keeps a flock of pigeons. Usually, he often uses a bamboo pole tied with a white cloth as a signal to attract pigeons. When he learned that his father had died in the battle to defend Paris, his young heart was filled with hatred and anger. He thought that white stripes meant surrender to the enemy, so he used red stripes to attract pigeons. The conspicuous red cloth strip was discovered by Dekou, and the inhuman fascist gangsters threw him downstairs and died in the street. They also killed all the pigeons in the pigeon cage with bayonets. At this point, the old man said to Picasso, "Sir, I ask you to draw me a pigeon in memory of my grandson who was killed by fascism." Later, with grief and indignation, Picasso drew a flying pigeon with a brush stroke-this is the embryonic form of the "dove of peace". 1950 1 1 month, in order to commemorate the World Peace Conference held in Warsaw, Picasso happily drew a flying pigeon with an olive branch. At that time, Nie Luda, a famous poet in Chile, called it "dove of peace", from which the dove was officially recognized as a symbol of peace. Pigeons, as messengers of peace, are also one of the indispensable roles in the great prosperity of the world. At the opening ceremonies of the Asian Games held in China in 1990 and the 25th Olympic Games in Barcelona in 1992, there were tens of thousands of beautiful pigeons flying in the sky, symbolizing the good wishes of the people of China and the world for peace, friendship and unity. Pigeons are regarded as a symbol of world peace, and pigeons are regarded as a symbol of peace. People use pigeons and olive branches to symbolize peace, which is called the Ark.
