Jesus Touches the Leper Kneeling Before Him

Emmanuel Higgins@emmanuel_higgins

A ragged man kneels with raised hands while Jesus bends toward him and takes his hand. A disciple stands behind and a city lies in the distance.

Prompt

Matthew 8: Jesus touches and heals the leper. On a dusty hillside path below the mount, a leper in torn, ragged garments kneels at the feet of Jesus, hands lifted in pleading, his face full of desperate hope; Jesus, large and central, bends toward him with deep compassion and lays his hand on the man's shoulder, saying "I will; be thou clean." Peter stands just behind, startled. Bright midday sunlight, soft green hills behind. The leper wears a wrapped head-cloth over his 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.
