Delilah Lets Samson Sleep on Her Knees

Samson sleeps with his head in Delilah's lap, his braided locks spread out. A man with a razor steps in from the shadows.

Prompt

Judges 16: Delilah makes Samson sleep upon her knees and calls for a man to shave off the seven locks of his head. Delilah sits large and central on a cushioned couch, Samson asleep with his head in her lap and his long seven-locked hair spread out, while she glances aside with a cold, calculating look toward a man stepping in from the shadows with a razor. Warm golden lamplight in a rich Philistine chamber with hanging curtains. 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.
