Solomon Comforts a Grieving Widow and Her Son

Prompt

Ecclesiastes 7: It is better to go to the house of mourning, than to go to the house of feasting. Inside a simple stone house lit by soft daylight from the doorway, the aged King Solomon, the Preacher, in a plain dark mantle over his robes, sits large and central on a low bench beside a grieving widow and her young son, one hand gently on the boy's shoulder, listening with a grave, compassionate face. Clay lamps and woven mats; the family wear torn garments of mourning. Calm, tender, solemn 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.
