Irijah Seizes Jeremiah at the Gate of Benjamin
A helmeted captain grips Jeremiah's arm in a stone gateway while Jeremiah protests with an open hand.
Prompt
Jeremiah 37: 'when he was in the gate of Benjamin, a captain of the ward was there, whose name was Irijah... and he took Jeremiah the prophet, saying, Thou fallest away to the Chaldeans.' In the gate of Benjamin, the captain Irijah grips Jeremiah by the arm; Jeremiah, large and central, protests that it is false. Bright morning light through the stone gateway. 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.
