The Angel Appears to Sleeping Joseph in a Dream
Joseph lies asleep on a mat in a stone room while a winged angel in white stands over him with a raised hand. Carpenter's tools hang on the wall.
Prompt
Matthew 1: the angel of the Lord appears to Joseph in a dream. Joseph, the carpenter of Nazareth, lies asleep on a woven mat in his simple stone house at night, troubled even in sleep, large and central in the frame. Above him stands a radiant angel with great white wings, filling the small room with soft golden light that falls across Joseph's face and the carpenter's tools on the wall. Quiet, holy, tender mood. 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.
