EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of the vibrant and lively Las Fallas festival in Valencia, Spain. The image showcases a close-up view of a Papier Mache sculpture depicting a lady surrounded by cherubs, set against the backdrop of Torres de Quart. During this annual celebration, known for its grandeur and pageantry, locals pay homage to St. Joseph through elaborate displays of satirical caricatures and puppets called ninots. These figures serve as effigies that are later burned in spectacular bonfires. The intricate details of the Papier Mache sculpture are truly remarkable, showcasing the skill and artistry involved in creating these larger-than-life characters. The lady at the center exudes elegance with her delicate features and graceful pose while being playfully accompanied by cherubs floating around her. The explosion of colors adds an extra layer of excitement to this scene, reflecting the festive spirit that permeates every corner during Las Fallas. From bright reds to vivid blues and yellows, each hue contributes to the overall visual spectacle. Photographer Hugh Rooney has perfectly captured this moment, allowing viewers to immerse themselves in the rich cultural heritage and joyous atmosphere that defines Las Fallas festival in Valencia Province.
