Close-up photograph of a dark carved stone cobra-hooded serpent sculpture with textured scales, holding a small flame burning from its base in a shallow bowl. Blurred green trees and a metal railing form the background, lit by warm daylight. No people are visible; the flame is an oil lamp or small fire on a serpent-shaped pedestal.
