A ten‑foot‑tall golden trophy depicting a caricature of U.S. President Donald Trump has been installed in a public space in New York City. The sculpture, described by its creators as a satirical commentary on the ongoing conflict between the United States and Iran, was unveiled on Tuesday near the intersection of 42nd Street and Seventh Avenue. The artwork, fashioned from bronze and plated in gold, portrays Trump with an exaggerated expression and a speech bubble referencing the war, and is accompanied by a plaque that reads, “War is the answer.”

The piece was commissioned by the activist collective “Artists for Peace,” which released a statement saying the trophy is intended to provoke dialogue about U.S. foreign policy and the human cost of the Iran‑United States confrontation that escalated earlier this month. City officials confirmed that the installation complies with local regulations for temporary public art and will remain in place for a period of 30 days, after which it will be removed or relocated. The New York Police Department reported no security incidents related to the display, and the city’s mayor’s office declined to comment on the political content of the work.
