Saint Gabriel the Archangel who will summon the whole world to the last judgement with the trumpet pray for us
An angel with a horn unaccompanied is usually Gabriel. It is he who made the announcement of the Annunciation to the Virgin Mary. Angel is from the Greek for 'messenger', from Greek it came to the other european languages. In cemeteries, it is not unusual to find angel statues. Most are anonymous. This one is scripted twice, and is shown with his heraldic trumpet.
