Prompt

1 Kings 14: The wife of King Jeroboam, disguised as a poor woman, comes to the blind prophet Ahijah at Shiloh. The prophet Ahijah, large and central, sits on a stool in the doorway of his humble stone house, his eyes clouded and unseeing, raising a hand toward her as he calls her by name and announces heavy tidings. Jeroboam's wife, large in the foreground, stands frozen in a plain hooded cloak, clutching a basket of loaves, small cakes and a jar of honey, her face showing shock. Simple courtyard at Shiloh with a fig tree, soft clear morning light. 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.
