+PyGMT logo
+==========
+Beside the :doc:`GMT logo </gallery/embellishments/gmt_logo>`, there is a specific logo
+for PyGMT which can be plotted and added to a figure using
+:meth:`pygmt.Figure.pygmtlogo`. The design of the logo itself is kindly provided by
+`@sfrooti <https://github.com/sfrooti>`_ and consists of an icon and the wordmark
+"PyGMT".
+
+The visual logo is available in circle and hexagon shapes. It supports both colored and
+monochrome black-and-white palettes, alongside light and dark theme modes, combining to
+yield eight distinct standalone logo variants. Additionally, the visual logo can
+optionally include the wordmark "PyGMT"; if enabled, the wordmark can be positioned
+either to the right of the icon or beneath it.
