Prompt

2 Kings 4: The prophet Elisha gives the Shunammite woman back her son, alive again. Elisha, large and central, stands in the doorway of the little upper chamber on the roof at Shunem, his face full of tender joy, gesturing toward the boy. The Shunammite woman kneels at his feet, bowed to the ground in thanks, and her young son, alive and well, sits up on the simple bed behind them, rubbing his eyes. Gehazi, Elisha's servant, watches from the stairway. Whitewashed walls, a small table, stool and clay lamp, warm golden late-afternoon light streaming through the window. Style: a blend of photo-realism and cinema, like a still from a big-budget film. Bright, rich, saturated, luminous colour, clear daylight or glowing golden light even in dramatic scenes, never murky or muddy, crisp detail, real human faces full of emotion, shallow depth of field, subtle film grain. Simple, uncluttered composition: ONE clear scene from this chapter, with the chapter's main character or characters large, close and central in the upper and middle frame, and a simple background. No montage, no collage, no inset vignettes, no crowd of small figures competing for attention. Historically accurate ancient Near Eastern clothing, architecture and landscape. Keep the bottom quarter of the frame simple and uncluttered (ground, water or sky) so a large chapter number can be set over it. Absolutely no text, no letters, no words, no numbers, no logos, no watermark, no border, no frame.
