The dove: A symbol as secular as it is Christian
- If the Catholic tradition has contributed to its fame, the reach of the dove goes far beyond the religious sphere.
In the twentieth century, it became a universal symbol of peace, popularized in particular by the famous poster designed by Picasso in 1949 for the World Congress of Peacemakers organized in Paris. The bird is gracefully drawn, wings extended, ready to take flight, an olive branch in the beak.
The painter will also call his daughter born the same year Paloma, which means dove in Spanish!
- The release of doves has since become a way to celebrate love, peace and hope.
As such, it is part of the protocol for the inauguration of the Olympic Games.
It is also possible to organize one on the occasion of a wedding or ceremony.
- For a jewel decorated with a dove: the positive values embodied by this symbol make it a motif of choice popular for medals or pendants.
The dove is also a guarantee of fidelity: like its cousin the carrier pigeon, it returns to its starting point.
