We present BVRI CCD aperture polarization and near-infrared photometry of theproto-planetary nebula Hen 3-1475. Its intrinsic polarization is high and showsa strong spectral dependence. The position angles in all bands areperpendicular to the axis of the observed bipolar structure. A Monte Carlo codeis used to model the intrinsic polarization of \hhe. Using disk dimensions andother constraints suggested by previous works, we are able to reproduce theobservations with an optically thick disk composed by grains with a power-lawsize distribution ranging from 0.06 to 0.22 um. We also reliably estimate theforeground polarization from hundreds of stars contained in the CCD images. Itis parallel to the intrinsic polarization of Hen 3-1475. Possible implicationsof this result are discussed. From IR observations, we estimate a interstellarreddening, A(V), of about 3.2.Comment: ApJ accepted, 16 pages, 6 figure
