Jew and Gentile Clasp Hands Over a Broken Wall
A man in a blue-tasseled prayer shawl and a man in a Greek tunic and blue cloak clasp hands over fallen stones, smiling in sunlight.
Prompt
Ephesians 2: 'For he is our peace, who hath made both one, and hath broken down the middle wall of partition between us.' Over the rubble of a broken-down low stone barrier wall, a Jewish believer wearing a prayer shawl with blue-threaded tassels and a Greek Gentile believer in a Greek chiton and cloak step toward each other and clasp hands warmly, large and central, faces full of joy and peace. Golden sunlight streams through the gap where the wall has fallen. Simple stone courtyard and clear blue sky behind. Both men wear wrapped head-cloths over their hair. 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.
