Pigeon Army Tapestries

The National Pigeon Appreciation Day is on 6/13/23. This date is believed to have been chosen to honor pigeons as it marks the day when the famous pigeon, Cher Ami, passed away in 1919. Cher Ami helped save the lives of 194 soldiers during World War I.

This is my acrylic painting of purple poppies in a field. Purple poppies are used to remember animal victims of war and human violence. Animals cannot volunteer and have no choice in becoming involved in war when they serve alongside human military personnel. Those animals include dogs, horses, donkeys, pigeons, and camels.

design montrant une colombe blanche tenant un rameau d’olivier dans son bec, symbole universel de la paix. Sur le fond, on voit des silhouettes de soldats jetant leurs armes et saluant la colombe, signe de rejet de la guerre. Le design est simple et élégant, avec des couleurs douces et harmonieuses.
