This black-and-white photograph depicts Carl Fredrik Reuterswärd’s iconic sculpture Non-Violence – the knotted gun – located outside the United Nations Headquarters in New York. The photo was taken by Swedish photographer Hans Hammarskjöld (1925–2012), one of Sweden’s most prominent 20th-century photographers, known for his sense of form, light, and graphic composition. The original photo was likely taken in the 1980s, around the sculpture’s installation in 1988. This restored version captures the contrast between the peaceful message of the symbol and the towering skyscrapers behind it – a timeless motif with a global message of non-violence.
