Camouflage for peace

In the military field, camouflage is characterized by a set of shapes and colors designed to blend in with the environment and thus escape the enemy's eye. In this inlay decoration by Daniele Calamandrei the shapes are enhanced by the colors of the iris, symbols of peace. They are not invisible. Indeed, they stand out, as if wanting to demand attention for an urgent and necessary dialogue, ideally facilitated by those personalities who emerge in the background. As if camouflaged in their institutional role, they worked to create bridges of peace between the West and the third world (Gandhi, Mother Teresa) or the Soviet empire (Gorbachev) or in the warm heart of the Middle East (Arafat, Perez). Heroes, as evidenced by the Nobel Peace Prize they were awarded, who we miss today.
