Everyone is sharing this poignant response to last night's Paris attacks

The image, created by Jean Jullien, has been dubbed “the internet’s response” to the attacks.

PEOPLE HAVE BEEN taking to social media to share messages of support and solidarity following last night’s attacks in Paris, which has reportedly left at least 127 people dead.

But one artist’s poignant response to the tragedy has struck a chord with many.

Jean Jullien, a French graphic designer based in London, shared a powerful image entitled Peace For Paris on his Instagram last night.

The moving twist on the peace icon has resonated with the masses – Boing Boing has even hailed it as “the internet’s official response” to the atrocities.

And this morning, it’s being shared all over social media.

Countless celebrities, including Kim Kardashian, Anne Hathway and Amy Schumer, have shared the image on their Instagram accounts.

The image was initially widely attributed to the artist Bansky after an unofficial Banksy account shared it last night.

But this morning, Jean Jullien is receiving the credit he deserves.
