General Description | The two main elements of Russian Imperial symbols (the two-headed eagle and the mounted figure slaying the dragon) predate Peter the Great. They date back to 1472, when Ivan III began using the double-headed eagle in his seal, which, along with the image of St. George slaying a dragon, have been common in the coat of arms since. |
