Found this masterpiece in my archive. Unfortunately, I'm not sure who the artist is. The artwork is titled Vužalki (Вужалкі), 2004.

In Belarusian #mythology Vužalki are the daughters of the #Natrix King (The King of #Snakes). Naked, adorned with abundant gold jewelry, which they sometimes lose. Harmless to humans. Always surrounded by snake guardians.

Photo taken in Zaslaŭje, #Belarus, in 2014.

Papercut artwork depicting two snake maidens back-to-back with serpent tails, holding ornate bowls, and crowned by a tree of intertwined snakes with colorful accents.

For the first time in history, scientists have been able to study the brain of an ancient snake that lived during the Cretaceous period. They examined an exceptionally well-preserved fossil of the ancient reptile.
Understanding snake evolution remains a challenging task due to the scarcity of paleontological data, as well as the profound anatomical changes that accompanied their ecological diversification.

Medusa with snake-hair passes a second woman, "Mousedusa," whose hair is a swarm of mice, as the snakes immediately begin consuming the mice— a visual pun captioned "The unfortunate meeting of Medusa and Mousedusa."

Snakes exist just to eat.
