A detailed sculpture titled "El Despertar" by Hermógenes García Gómez, created in 1988, is displayed within a clear glass case inside the Museu Faller de València, Spain. The sculpture depicts two figures, a woman and a man, seated on an ornate white tiled bench with blue trim and a backrest featuring stylized floral designs in yellow, blue, and purple. The woman, positioned on the left, has blonde hair styled with decorative combs and wears a traditional Valencian fallera dress in a light cream or pale green fabric with intricate floral patterns and lace embellishments. She wears multiple pearl necklaces and earrings. Her gaze is directed downwards, and she holds a closed white fan in her left hand. Her right arm rests on the back of the bench. The man, situated on the right, has reddish-brown curly hair and wears a red cap, a grey jacket with red shoulder embellishments, grey trousers, and a red sash around his waist. He is wearing traditional espadrille-style footwear with crisscrossed laces. He leans slightly forward, with his left arm resting on the bench's back, and his right hand on his hip, looking towards the woman. Between the figures, on the bench, rests a small woven basket filled with sculpted oranges. A multicolored patterned blanket or shawl is draped over the right side of the bench, extending to the base. To the far right, on a tiled pedestal, a dark blue urn-shaped vase contains pink and green artificial flowers. Sculpted red roses are arranged at the base of this pedestal. The entire sculpture rests on a tiled floor base with a dark blue border. An informational plaque at the front identifies the artwork, artist, year, and materials (cardboard, painted with plastic). The background behind the display is a plain orange wall, with reflections of an exterior building visible in the glass case.
