Foreign Peoples Bring Zion's Children Home

Prompt

Isaiah 49: They shall bring thy sons in their arms. Zion, pictured as a grieving Israelite mother, sits by the broken walls of Jerusalem and looks up in amazement, large and central, as foreign men and women arrive carrying her lost children home: a small boy in a stranger's arms and a girl riding on a man's shoulders, both reaching toward her. Warm golden late-afternoon light, tears of joy. 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.
