Do you know what this picture means? Do you know what this picture means in religious terms? It is taken in a Hungarian Protestant church in Transylvania, Romania I have found the meaning of the trumpet, as a religious symbol. However, no dictionary seems to have present the symbol of a winged animal, blowing a trumpet. Does anyone seem to know?

Thank you a thousand times :D I have researched and found that this is a picture painted by one of the painters from the Umling family. He just imagined a dragon to look like this, without having any real knowledge about how a real dragon would be depicted in the West side of Europe. But.. I have, nowhere, found the piece of information you offered. You are the best! Thank you once more, Have a wonderful day (^-^)

That was very interesting. I had to actually search a bit for that. Here is what I found. Christian Demonology and Popular Mythology, Volume 2 edited by Gábor Klaniczay, Éva Pócs Around Page 102 with references to churches in Romania "The dragon blowing a trumpet refers to the dual nature of the devil and angel.
