Step 1 : Introduction to the question "Which creature is featured on Alfa Romeo car logo?"
Alfa Romeo has one of the most historical emblems among all car brands in the world. The company's name is a combination of the original name, "A.L.F.A." and the last name of entrepreneur Nicola Romeo, who took control of the company in 1915. Alfa Romeo's logo incorporates two heraldic devices traditionally associated with its birthplace, the city of Milan: a red cross, from the emblem of Milan, and the biscione, a crowned viper snake swallowing a Moor—emblem of the House of Visconti, rulers of the city in the 14th century.
