Prompt

Please create a high-end Dunhuang-mural-style artwork centered on {argument name="theme" default="a flying-apsara goddess"}. Use {argument name="composition" default="the main character as the single visual core"} for the composition, portraying the sacred moment of her core action / situation. The overall mood should be {argument name="overall mood" default="sacred, solemn, and magnificent"}, with a museum-grade aesthetic, cultural depth, and collectible-level artistry. Main Subject Requirements: The main character should convey an elegant, solemn, tall and noble bearing with a strong sense of divinity — a relaxed, extended pose with the clear sanctity and ritual quality of a Dunhuang mural. Her face should be tranquil, holy, restrained, and inviolable, carrying the solemn air of a goddess / bodhisattva / flying-apsara figure from Dunhuang murals, rather than that of an ordinary guofeng (Chinese-style) beauty. Her hair should be piled up high, adorned with an elaborate, exquisite gold hair crown, dangling pearl-and-bead hairpins, earrings, a beaded necklace, armlets, and a waist ornament. Her garments should be magnificent, with flowing drapery and fine, strong lines, full of the rhythm of a flying apsara and the texture of a court-level mural. Her sleeves, ribbons, skirt hem, and cuffs should form rhythmic, flowing curves, reinforcing the sense of sacred ascension and the rhythm of the composition. Gold-Structure Requirements: The image needs to emphasize structural use of gold — not scattered dabs of gold, but a clear, luxurious order: The main character's hair crown, jewelry, garment edges, cuffs, waist sash, ribbon edges, and skirt patterns should use gold outlining, gold-clay technique, gilding, gold-thread embroidery, and traces of worn gold leaf; Core sacred elements — such as the lunar disc / halo of Buddha-light / dharma wheel / canopy / lotus throne, cloud patterns, lotus petals, precious-flower motifs, caisson-ceiling patterns, roundel flower patterns, and border decoration — should also carry clearly visible yet restrained, premium gold decoration; The overall effect should be resplendent with gold but not gaudy, richly crafted but not cheap — conveying the worn, luxurious feel of something that has weathered a thousand years yet still retains the afterglow of its golden splendor. Color Requirements: The colors should mainly be ochre-red, cinnabar, azure-green, azurite, malachite green, earthy yellow, and ivory white, complemented by a restrained, exquisite use of earthy gold and gilding. The overall tone should be rich, deep, antique, and noble — avoid light, candy-like colors. The background can use an ambient primary color such as a deep azurite sky backdrop, a warm ancient-wall base tone, or a dark-gold mineral base combined with an ancient-wall texture, to set off the sanctity and dignity of the main subject. Decorative Element Requirements: The image can incorporate typical Dunhuang visual motifs such as flying apsaras, lotus flowers, precious-flower motifs, caisson ceilings, auspicious clouds, court musicians, roundel flower patterns, pavilions and palace halls, ritual implements, halos of holy light, and classical border decoration — but these must be concentrated around the main subject with clear hierarchy, avoiding an evenly-filled, cluttered composition. Keep any accompanying figures to just a few, serving as attendants and homage, positioned around or below the main subject, forming a ceremonial momentum directed toward her. They may perform accompanying actions such as holding a lotus / playing the pipa / playing the flute / offering flowers / holding a lamp / holding a banner, with light, flowing lines that echo the main subject without overshadowing her. Space and Composition Requirements: The composition should retain a moderate amount of cloud-mist space, negative space around the holy light, and moonlight or sky negative space, so the image has room to breathe. The core sacred element should be eye-catching, solemn, and complete/whole, with gilded halos, rings of holy light, and fine gold-line trails around it to reinforce the subject's sanctity. Distant background elements — such as a lunar palace / palace halls amid the clouds / a Buddhist-realm building / a celestial sky backdrop — can be added sparingly, to enhance spatial layering and a sense of the immortal realm without becoming excessive. Material Requirements: Emphasize the texture of ancient cave murals and mineral pigments: There should be visible mottling, cracks, weathering, slight flaking, the patina of age, powdery edges, and an ancient-wall texture; At the same time, retain localized gold outlining, worn gold leaf, and the abraded sheen of gilding, forming a premium artistic texture that is "old yet noble, worn yet magnificent, ancient yet sacred." Overall requirements: magnificent, delicate, mysterious, solemn, unified, collectible-grade, artistic, and extremely premium in feel. Negative Constraints: Avoid a modern guochao (China-chic) style, avoid a commercial-illustration feel, avoid an ordinary guofeng-beauty illustration, avoid an anime feel, avoid an influencer aesthetic, avoid a plastic-like texture, avoid cheap, gaudy gold, avoid gold that is too bright or garish, avoid fluorescent colors, avoid over-saturation, avoid too many figures, avoid over-filled background elements, avoid decoration spread evenly across the whole image, avoid an overly busy, floral-clutter feel, avoid unclear visual hierarchy, avoid a subject that fails to stand out, avoid a low-grade, piled-on feel, avoid mediocrity, avoid frivolity, avoid a modern-clothing feel, avoid a photographic feel, avoid a plastic-like 3D-model feel.
