Joseph Lifts His Brother in Forgiveness

Prompt

Genesis 50: after Jacob's burial, Joseph's fearful brothers fall down before him begging forgiveness, and Joseph weeps and comforts them: you thought evil against me, but God meant it for good. Joseph, still the viceroy of Egypt in his white Egyptian linen and gold collar, stands large and central, tears in his eyes, bending down to lift Judah up by the hands, while Reuben and the other brothers kneel before him with bowed heads. A bright sunlit courtyard of Joseph's house in Egypt with palms beyond. The mood is forgiving, tender and full of grace. 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.
