Pocket square – The Great Day of Girona

The Silk Pocket square “The Great Day of Girona” is a portable artistic masterpiece, inspired by the artwork of César Álvarez Dumont, one of the most talented artists of his time.

This pocket square offers an incredible fusion of art and fashion, transforming a historic painting into a classy and stylish accessory.

“The Great Day of Girona” is a painting by César Álvarez Dumont, a 19th-century Spanish artist. The work depicts one of the bloodiest episodes of the siege of Gerona in 1809, the third siege of Girona, brought by the French Grand Army against the Spanish city of Girona. It lasted seven months, from May 6 to December 12, 1809, and was an important confrontation of the Spanish War of Independence.

Dumont’s deft brushstrokes capture the energy and vibrant atmosphere of this celebration, conveying the excitement of the moment. The painting is known for its accurate details and vivid use of colors, reflecting the artist’s mastery in depicting the themes of the Spanish War of Independence.
