Ehud Stands Before King Eglon

Emmanuel Higgins@emmanuel_higgins

Prompt

Judges 3: Ehud, the left-handed deliverer, stands before Eglon king of Moab in his cool summer parlour and says, "I have a message from God unto thee." Eglon, a very fat king in rich purple robes, rises from his carved throne, large and central, listening with curiosity; Ehud stands before him, calm and resolute, his right hand on his cloak hiding the dagger strapped to his right thigh. Sunlight streams through a high latticed window into the upper room with painted plaster walls. 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.
