Miniature Chichen Itza pyramid on map

A miniature Chichen Itza pyramid stands lifted from an aged paper map, centered within a 16:9 horizontal frame to show surrounding terrain and scale. The scene reads like a tiny archaeological tableau with the pyramid as the clear focal point and a calm exploratory mood. Map surfaces remain unlettered and clean, with faint cartographic lines reduced to abstract inked contours that suggest roads and watercourses. Dense jungle foliage frames the map edges, with glossy feathered tropical birds perched and fluttering to introduce motion and color. Hanging vines and damp stone textures cling to the pyramid base, and rough carved stone contrasts with the smooth fibrous map paper. Warm golden rim light sculpts the pyramid faces and ochre mortar, while cool green-teal fill light settles in shadowed vegetation for balanced contrast. The focus is crisp on the miniature pyramid, with moderate depth revealing layered foliage that recedes softly toward the borders. A slightly elevated eye-level viewpoint reads as a medium wide composition, preserving negative space at left and right for the 16:9 crop. Small props such as a weathered navigational pin and a single broken pottery shard sit nearby to hint at discovery. The medium feels like a richly detailed hyperreal diorama rendered in painterly texture with fine grain and subtle atmospheric mist.
