Hezekiah Spreads Sennacherib's Letter Before the LORD

Prompt

Isaiah 37: King Hezekiah spreads Sennacherib's letter before the LORD. Hezekiah, large and central, kneels in his torn royal robe with rough sackcloth over it in the court of the temple in Jerusalem, both hands spreading a leather letter on the stone pavement before the great bronze altar, the letter turned so that no writing can be seen, his face lifted in desperate prayer. Behind him rise the temple porch and its two great bronze pillars, with smoke from the altar drifting upward and a shaft of warm golden light falling on him from above. Reverent, intense mood. 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.
