About This Design

The Portuguese Rooster of Barcelos Tote Bag

The Portuguese Rooster of Barcelos Tote Bag

The Portuguese Rooster of Barcelos is the unofficial symbol of Portugal and one of its most recognisable icons. Inspired by an old pilgrim’s legend, the clay figurines were first just a powerful symbol of truth and justice. From the 1950s onwards the Portuguese Barcelos Rooster became a symbol of national tourism propaganda efforts and Portuguese culture. The rooster is depicted in tourist posters to promote Portugal’s folklore, traditions, landscapes, and also the hospitality and simple way of life of the Portuguese. Today it remains a source of inspiration for many Portuguese artisans and graphic artists. Tourists travelling to Portugal can’t miss it as the red big crested rooster is everywhere from north to south. The “Galo de Barcelos” makes a welcome addition to any home. It will be a thoughtful housewarming gift for a friend, co-worker, teacher, or a relative of Portuguese nationality - they will undoubtedly appreciate it. Or, maybe you just want a Portuguese souvenir while you dream about your summer trip to Portugal! There are two versions of this illustration, one has light dots, and the other has dark dots.

The tote bag is smashing! It feels very sturdy and well made. A great size, can fit all your bits and pieces and the handles are strong, but long enough to be able to sling over your shoulder. Perfect for out and about! Absolutely love it! Have to say, the print is excellent! I should know, I painted the original painting. I ordered the bag to see how well my painting translated into a bag and I am wowed! Some pics of my original painting and the bag next to it, fabulous print job!
