The invention relates to an anticounterfeiting device comprising a form birefringent surface relief structure bearing a colored three-dimensional polarization image. The structure may be composed of pixels whose surface relief microstructure and composition determines the direction and color of zero-order diffracted light visible from each pixel when the structure is illuminated with polarized light and viewed through an analyzer that passes light of the opposite polarization.
