Chi-Rho Symbol - Meaning and History of the Early Christian Monogram #2079041 (License: Personal Use)

This black-and-white image displays the Chi-Rho symbol-a Christogram formed by superimposing the Greek letters Chi (Χ) and Rho (Ρ)-centered within a circle. Flanking the vertical stem are the Greek letters Alpha (Α) on the left and Omega (Ω) on the right, referencing Revelation 22:13 (“I am the Alpha and the Omega”). The intersecting lines resemble a labarum, the military standard adopted by Emperor Constantine after his vision before the Battle of the Milvian Bridge in 312 CE.
