Why did Saint Mark choose the lion as his symbol?
Mark did not choose the symbol of a lion. Over years it was gradually assigned to him by artists. A winged lion is Mark's symbol. The lion derives from Mark's description of John the Baptist as a "voice of one crying out in the desert" (Mark 1:3), which artists compared to a roaring lion.
