David Shows Saul the Cut Robe Corner
David kneels at the cave mouth at En-gedi holding a torn piece of Saul's robe while Saul looks up at him.
Prompt
1 Samuel 24: Outside the cave at En-gedi, David bows to the ground and calls after King Saul, holding up the piece of Saul's robe he cut off in the cave to show that he spared the LORD's anointed. David is large and central on a rocky ledge at the cave mouth, kneeling with one hand holding up a torn piece of royal purple-fringed cloth, his face earnest and pleading. Below him on the path, Saul, crowned and in a royal robe missing a corner of its hem, has turned back and stands looking up at him, his face moved to tears. The cliffs of En-gedi with wild goats on the rocks and a glimpse of green spring water below, bright clear desert daylight; moving, merciful 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.
