Russian Cross

A Russian Cross is a type of symbol or logo. It consists of four arrows pointing outward from a central point to form a cross that looks like a four-pointed star. The arrows all point in the same direction and can be different lengths. The background may be a single color or two colors, with the arrows being a different color or the same color. The symbol is often used by the Russian Orthodox Church and is thought to represent the four cardinal directions or the four evangelists.
