Moses Anoints Aaron as High Priest
Moses pours oil from a horn over the head of Aaron, who wears the high priest's turban with its plate and the jeweled breastplate, before the tabernacle hangings.
Prompt
Exodus 29: at the door of the tabernacle Moses consecrates Aaron to the priest's office, putting the mitre and holy crown on his head and pouring the anointing oil upon his head. Aaron, in his high priest's garments, bows his head humbly, large and central, while Moses stands beside him tipping a horn of golden oil that streams over Aaron's head and beard. The richly coloured door hanging of the tabernacle glows behind them in warm morning light; the mood is sacred, tender and solemn. 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.
