Icons and stickers to design projects to fall in love with

They say that love should be celebrated every day. But, whether you like it or not, there is one date on the calendar when love seems more important than ever – Valentine’s Day. 

As it approaches, we begin seeing the world filling up with the hearts and romantic phrases that flood websites, banners and all kinds of creative pieces. Nowadays, February 14th is also one of those dates that stand out in the sales calendar. 

This was not always the case. It’s not very clear how this came about, but one explanation places the origin of this festival some centuries before Christ’s birth, in the celebration of Lupercalia (or the festival of the she-wolf) that was celebrated in honor of Lupa, the she-wolf that suckled the founders of Rome, Romulus and Remus.  

However, another explanation places the origin as a celebration of Christian origin, linked to the figure of a Roman priest. For one point, guess what his name was? Valentine! The young cleric decided to defy the emperor’s ban preventing young men from marrying so that they would perform better in the army and began celebrating marriages in secret. After being discovered, he was arrested and imprisoned. There, the officer challenged him to perform a miracle: to restore his daughter Julia’s sight. But despite his success, Valentine was put to death on 14 February 269. Before his tragic end, he sent a farewell letter to his beloved Julia, signing it with the phrase “From your Valentine”.

The celebration has changed a great deal since then, but what is still present, year after year, is the exaltation of love by lovers all over the world. 

So to help you spread the love on this special date, at Flaticon we have also focused on our romantic side by compiling some of our most loving icon packs.
