The peacock is a useful symbol for authority, strength, confidence, and even divinity due to its distinctive beauty, however it has varied interpretations in different cultures. Throughout history, most kings have aspired to be connected with divinity. The peacock didn’t become the official symbol of Art Nouveau until the 19th century, when it came to centre stage.
