The works of Parazeres Côta, much like those of her mother, Júlia, evoke rural life in Minho, its traditional characters, and the influences of religious or mythological beliefs.

This terracotta Rooster is the personal and creative interpretation of the famous Galo de Barcelos by Prazeres Côta, the granddaughter of its creator.

More Informations

The Côta family is the most charismatic and representative family of figurative art in Barcelos and the Minho region in Northern Portugal.

Prazeres, one of Julia Côta's daughters, continues the tradition initiated by her great-grandfather, João Domingos Côta da Rocha, the creator of the famous Portuguese Rooster (Galo de Barcelos).
