About This Design

The Portuguese Rooster of Barcelos Playing Cards

The Portuguese Rooster of Barcelos Playing Cards

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.

Received this package today and I'm absolutely delighted with the cards. The picture is true in colour and clarity and my great Grandson will be chuffed having his picture on his own card deck. Very quick delivery as well. Thankyou Zazzle. .

It looks absolutely amazing. Definitely 10/10. The printing turned out so good. It’s perfect and my husband loves it as it’s his twitch logo.
