False Prophets Flee as Their Whitewashed Wall Collapses
Two robed men stagger back, one holding a trowel and a bucket of plaster, as a whitewashed stone wall crumbles in a hailstorm.
Prompt
Ezekiel 13: the wall the false prophets daubed with untempered mortar collapses in an overflowing shower and great hailstones. In the foreground, large and central, two false prophets of Israel in fine robes, one still holding a plastering trowel and a bucket of whitewash, stagger back in terror as the freshly whitewashed wall they built crumbles and falls apart before them, its white plaster peeling away; great hailstones bounce on the ground and a stormy wind drives rain, while bright sunlight breaks through the clouds behind. 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.
