The Soldier and the Rose

Product description

Amid a rigid line of armed soldiers, one figure breaks formation. Instead of pointing his weapon, he bends down to smell a flower, a symbol of life and freedom. In this deeply symbolic cartoon, Hani Abbas pays tribute to conscience over conformity, humanity over violence.

This is one of Hani Abbas’s most iconic and widely recognized works. It was chosen as the official poster for the Cartooning for Peace exhibition in 2014, the same year he received their international award. A timeless image of silent resistance and the power of personal choice.
