dove of peace
In the distant past, pigeons were once regarded as messengers of love. For example, in Babylonia, the dove was a divine bird beside Sista, the goddess of love and education, and the girl was called "the dove of love" in her life. It was not until the beginning of the era that pigeons were regarded as a symbol of peace. It is recorded in Genesis of the Old Testament that after the ancient flood, Noah released a pigeon from the ark and wanted to know whether the flood was over. God let the dove take back the olive branch, indicating that the flood has passed and there is 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 full of flowers appeared in front of everything 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 pigeons a new mission and made them the embodiment of the "holy spirit." It was not until the17th century that pigeons were restored as messengers of peace again. Many cities in the German Empire issued a set of pigeons with olive branches in their mouths, and the commemorative coins of "Holy Pigeon for Peace" were engraved at the bottom of the pattern. Schiller, an outstanding representative of the German hurricane movement, introduced pigeons from a religious symbol of peace into politics. Pigeons once again became heroic fighters and were no longer a symbol of hope without resistance. Picasso dove of peace
Pigeons, as a symbol of world peace and recognized by the world, began in Picasso. 1940, Hitler's fascist bandits captured the French capital Paris. At that time, Picasso was sitting in the studio in low spirits when someone knocked at the door. Mish, an old neighbor, told Picasso a sad story with a bloody pigeon in his hand. It turns out that the old man's grandson keeps a flock of pigeons. Usually, he often uses a bamboo pole tied with 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 surrendering to the enemy, so he used red stripes to attract pigeons. The conspicuous red cloth strip was discovered by Dekou, and the inhuman fascist gangster threw him downstairs and died in the street. They also killed all the pigeons in the pigeon coop with bayonets. At this time, the old man said to Picasso, "Sir, I ask you to draw a pigeon for me in memory of my grandson who was killed by fascism." Later, mixed with grief and indignation, Picasso painted a flying pigeon with brush strokes-this is the prototype of the "dove of peace". 1950165438+10 In order to commemorate the World Peace Conference held in Warsaw, Picasso happily drew a flying pigeon with an olive branch. At that time, the famous Chilean poet Nie Luda called it "the dove of peace", and the dove was officially recognized as a symbol of peace. Pigeons, as messengers of peace, are also one of the indispensable roles of world prosperity. At the opening ceremony of the Asian Games held in China in 1990 and the 25th Olympic Games held in Barcelona in 1992, thousands of beautiful pigeons were 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 and call it the ark.
