Prompt

2 Samuel 5: All the tribes of Israel come to David at Hebron, and the elders anoint him king over all Israel. David kneels large and central in royal blue and a mantle, head bowed and eyes closed in humble gratitude, as a white-bearded tribal elder pours oil from a ram's horn over his head. Two or three other elders in striped mantles stand close around him with hands raised in blessing. Behind them, out of focus, the stone gate of Hebron and banners of the tribes against a brilliant blue sky; bright, joyful midday light; solemn, unifying moment. 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.
