Have you ever happened to meet in a field grazing... a red cow? No, this is neither a warning sign nor a shooting target.
In 2005, in the capital of Switzerland, a discussion was held concerning a crucial issue - choosing an additional emblem for the International Red Cross and Red Crescent societies. Different countries offered their own symbols: the Star of David, a swastika, a diamond. One symbol in particular that was proprosed was the Red Cow, symbolizing a peaceful animal that gives milk, and life. This proposal was not supported, but the author managed to take a photo of a mockup of the cow. The inscription on the label reads: "The original is in Switzerland".
Turning the photo into a colorful poster was very easy:
