In the heart of Valencia province, amidst a colorful street scene, stands a captivating papier-mâché figure that is part of this annual celebration. The figure's intricate design and attention to detail showcase the incredible craftsmanship involved in creating these unique caricatures.

The photograph by Hugh Rooney perfectly captures the vivid colors and lively atmosphere surrounding this particular papier-mâché creation. As viewers gaze upon it, they can almost feel the energy emanating from the bustling streets during this festive time.
