King Solomon Welcomes His Veiled Bride

Prompt

Psalm 45 (a Song of loves, for the sons of Korah), pictured as a royal wedding in Solomon's Jerusalem: "The king's daughter is all glorious within: her clothing is of worked gold. She shall be brought to the king in raiment of needlework... out of the ivory palaces." The young King Solomon, in rich royal robes and a golden crown, a sword girded at his side, stands in a hall of carved ivory panels and cedar pillars, smiling warmly as his bride is led toward him. The bride, veiled lightly and dressed in a magnificent gown embroidered with gold thread, walks toward him with her bridesmaids following behind. Solomon and the bride are large and central. Warm golden light pours through tall windows; fragrant smoke of myrrh curls from a brazier. 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.
