Diana Devora Redhouse (26 April 1923 – 19 October 2007) was a British artist, best known as the designer in 1963 of the Amnesty candle, part of Amnesty International's first ever Christmas card, a candle wrapped in barbed wire, chosen because of "its simplicity and the effectiveness of its symbolism".[1][2]
