1949, Picasso donated a lithograph to the international conference, the World Peace and Security Conference, with a handsome and beautiful girl's head and a pigeon spreading its wings.
That dove, which has gone through vicissitudes and hardships, is extremely holy and beautiful, full of Picasso's pursuit and hope, and is the "dove of peace" that brings peace and tranquility to the world! It immediately became a symbol of peace and quickly appeared all over the world. It is called "the dove of peace" and Picasso is called "the father of the dove of peace". The famous Chilean poet Nie Luda wrote a poem:
Picasso's dove of peace spread its wings and soared all over the world, and no force could stop it from soaring.

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.
