Bordallo Pinheiro Saint António Variações Sardine FINAL STOCK
Saint António Variações Sardine by Bordallo Pinheiro
This sardine wanted to “change its life” and dress up as the man who said “I'm going to be a singer” and who became much more than that. It left at the crack of dawn of Saint António and became Saint António das Variações on its own. With his barber's scissors, the slippers for going out into the street and Saint Teresinha to protect him from harm, he sang... “Adeus que me vou embora” [“Goodbye I'm going away”], taken to the heavens by the limelight.
Sardines represent the Portuguese Coast.
