The imagery originates from Old and New Testament visions of the heavenly court surrounding God's throne.
Ezekiel 1:5–10: The prophet Ezekiel describes four living creatures (cherubim), each having four faces: that of a man, a lion, an ox, and an eagle.
Revelation 4:6–8: The author of the Apocalypse (St. John) sees four living creatures around the throne—the first like a lion, the second like an ox, the third with a human face, and the fourth like a flying eagle
