I found it inside the house on a decorative wall hanging after dusk. Which is this one?

This is an oleander hawk-moth (Daphnis nerii; Lepidoptera: Sphingidae) - see http://tinyurl.com/yhk5q96 for an image.

Dinu, that is a great picture. You should consider posting that picture in the Bug Files here on DG.
