Jesus Raises the Widow's Son at Nain

Jesus rests his hand on an open bier as a young man in white linen sits up, while his mother in a dark mantle reaches toward him weeping with joy. Bearers stand around them before a stone town gate.

Prompt

Luke 7: Jesus raises the widow's son at the gate of Nain. Jesus, large and central, stands beside an open wooden funeral bier with one hand resting on it; the young man, wrapped in white linen burial cloths, sits up alive, and his mother, a widow in a dark mourning mantle, clasps her hands and weeps for joy as she reaches toward him. The bearers have stopped in astonishment. The stone gateway of the small hillside town of Nain and a golden afternoon sky behind. The bearers and the young man wear wrapped turbans or head-cloths over their hair. 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.
