David Gives Solomon the Plans for the Temple

Emmanuel Higgins@emmanuel_higgins

David hands a scroll with the temple plans to Solomon. Behind them Levites carry the ark and play trumpets, and an angel with a drawn sword stands over the threshing floor.

Prompt

The book of 1 Chronicles as an epic film poster. King David, aged and regal, stands before Mount Moriah holding the scroll of plans for the temple, giving them to his young son Solomon. Behind them: Levite singers and musicians with harps, lyres, cymbals and silver trumpets in joyful worship; the ark of the covenant carried up to Jerusalem; David's mighty warriors in armour; the angel with drawn sword over the threshing floor of Araunah. Rich gold and sapphire light, grand and reverent. Style: a blend of photo-realism and cinema, like a still from a big-budget film or a film poster. 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 on the main figures, subtle film grain. Composition like a movie one-sheet in portrait format: the main figures large and close in the upper and middle frame, the book's major events unfolding smaller behind and around them. Historically accurate ancient Near Eastern or first-century clothing, architecture and landscape. Keep the bottom quarter of the frame simple and uncluttered (ground, water or sky) so a large title can be set over it. Absolutely no text, no letters, no words, no numbers, no logos, no watermark, no border, no frame.
