On December 4, 1959, Soviet artist Evgeny Vuchetich presented a bronze statue to the United Nations, titledLet Us Beat Our Swords into Plowshares. The sculpture is an image of a man beating a sword into a plowshare, meant to symbolize humankind’s desire to end war—the desire to take the tools of violence and war and turn them into tools for peace, tools to benefit humankind rather than harm it.
