Wisdom Calls From the City Gate Steps

Prompt

Proverbs 8: Doth not wisdom cry? She standeth in the top of high places; she crieth at the gates, at the entry of the city: Unto you, O men, I call. Wisdom, pictured as a dignified, mature Israelite woman, fully clothed in a long deep-blue robe and a white linen head-veil, an ordinary human woman with no glow, no halo and no wings, stands large and central on the high stone steps beside a city gate, one arm stretched out, calling earnestly to the men passing below. Behind her the great wooden gate doors and the pale limestone towers glow in bright morning sun. 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.
