Micaiah stands with a raised hand before two kings seated on thrones, with a man holding horns at the right.

Prompt

1 Kings 22: The prophet Micaiah stands alone before King Ahab and King Jehoshaphat at the gate of Samaria. Micaiah, large and central, stands firm and unafraid in plain prophet's clothing, one hand raised as he declares that he saw all Israel scattered on the hills like sheep without a shepherd. Behind him on two thrones in the open square at the city gate sit King Ahab, scowling in anger, and King Jehoshaphat of Judah, troubled and thoughtful, both in royal robes. To one side the false prophet Zedekiah brandishes a pair of iron horns. Stone gateway of Samaria, bright clear morning light. 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.
