A large, intricately sculpted *falla* figure is depicted outdoors at night in València, Spain, likely in the Plaça de l'Ajuntament. The central element is a statue of a soldier, presenting features reminiscent of Charlie Chaplin's 'The Tramp,' dressed in an olive-green military uniform, a helmet, and tall laced boots. He is equipped with a rifle slung over his right shoulder, multiple belt pouches, and a cylindrical canister. His left arm is extended upwards, with an open palm supporting a vibrant, iridescent butterfly, towards which his gaze is directed. The soldier stands on a substantial base displaying the word 'HOPE' in large, stylized letters. The letter 'O' is replaced by a peace symbol, and all letters are decorated with colorful, psychedelic patterns incorporating flowers, rainbows, and stars. Illuminated multi-story buildings of urban architecture are visible in the dark background. White, cloud-shaped cutouts are partially visible on the right side of the sculpture's base.
