Achan Confesses Under Joshua's Gaze

Achan kneels beside a hole in the tent floor with a hand on his chest, silver, a gold wedge and an embroidered garment before him, while Joshua stands over him.

Prompt

Joshua 7: Achan confesses to Joshua that he coveted and hid the forbidden spoil of Jericho in the earth under his tent. Achan kneels in shame beside a freshly dug hole in the tent floor, from which a goodly embroidered Babylonish garment, a heap of silver pieces and a wedge of gold have been lifted out; Joshua stands over him, large and grave, grief and sternness in his face. Warm daylight streams through the open tent flap, the camp of Israel beyond. 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.
