In Viking Age art, dragon depictions primarily symbolized strength, power, and bravery. As protective symbols, they were also meant to deter enemies, which is why they were frequently depicted as three-dimensional carvings (dreki) on the prows of ships. In mythology, however, they could also represent chaos and destruction.

The Urnes style (c. 1050–1125 AD) marks the latest phase of Viking Age art. It is characterized by extremely stylized, slender, and intertwined animal figures, as well as floral elements. As a transitional style, it combines traditional Norse animal ornamentation with Christian influences and Romanesque architectural forms, which is particularly striking in the carvings of the Urnes Stave Church.
