Catalan Peasant

Life in the countryside is an integral part of Catalonia's history. For generations, farmers have worked the land, tended the crops, and helped keep alive many of the customs we now identify with our popular culture. With his red barretina (traditional Catalan cap), sash, and espadrilles, our Catalan Peasant Caganer embodies the traditional image of the Catalan farmer. A character deeply rooted in our collection and in nativity scenes, he reminds us of the importance of preserving our traditions and passing them on to new generations.
