This puzzle appears right after you made your escape from the first Daughter of Dimitrescu. Ethan will find himself in a room full of stone carvings. Right at the center is a hanging torch, with two unlit braziers to the sides. The objective is clear, you will need to light both braziers in order to progress.

To get that done, you will need to hit the hanging torch towards the braziers with the trusty knife in Resident Evil Village.
