The Rooster of Portugal and Portuguese Mosaics Magnet

The legend: Portugal - Barcelos - The towns famous symbol is a rooster, in Portuguese called: O Galo de Barcelos (the Rooster of Barcelos). One of the many versions of this legend goes that a rich man threw a big party. When the party was over, the rich man noticed that his sterling cutlery was stolen by a guest. He accused a pilgrim and let him go to court. He protested his innocence, but the judge didnt believe him. The judge was about to eat a roasted rooster when the pilgrim said: - If I am innocent, this rooster will crow three times. When the pilgrim was about to be lynched, the rooster crowed. The judge released the pilgrim. The story ends a few years later when the pilgrim returned and made a statue over the event. Hello, you may notice that the edges of the graphics are irregular. Its true and I made it on purpose to give a rustic appearance, to reenforce the typical and cultural heritage. Some of my designs for the -Rooster of Barcelos- are irregular. If you prefer regular edges, please let me know :) Best wishes - Silvia.
