Prompt

Exodus 38: Bezaleel makes the laver of brass and its foot from the bronze looking-glasses of the women who assembled at the door of the tabernacle. Bezaleel stands large and central beside the newly cast, gleaming round bronze laver, gratefully receiving a polished bronze hand mirror from an Israelite woman, while a few more mirrors lie shining in a basket at his feet. A glowing furnace and the white linen hangings of the court in bright sunlight behind them; the mood is generous, warm and devoted. 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.
