Antique Chinese Noblewoman Poster
Goal: Create a vertical Chinese historical romance character-poster infographic for a noblewoman in an ancient garden, centered on the theme {argument name="character name" default="薛宝钗"}, with ornate Qing/Hanfu-inspired elegance, scrapbook textures, and numbered story vignettes.
Canvas: Tall 2:3 poster, antique parchment background with torn-paper edges, sepia ink calligraphy, fine gold geometric lines, translucent cracked-glass polygon overlays, and a warm muted palette of beige, cream, dusty rose, sage green, dark ink, and aged gold.
Central subject: Full-body aristocratic young woman standing on a carved round stone pedestal in front of a blurred old library/garden pavilion filled with flowers. Her face is intentionally soft-blurred and featureless, as if anonymized, while the rest of the portrait is highly detailed. She wears an elaborate pale cream embroidered robe with layered wide sleeves, peach-pink translucent outer drapes, sage-green trim, floral peony embroidery down the front panel and hem, embroidered shoes, and a gold-and-pearl hair ornament crown with dangling beads. She holds a round silk fan in her extended left hand, decorated with painted peonies and vertical Chinese calligraphy, and holds a round gold pendant near her chest with the other hand; a tassel and bead chain hang from her wrist. Overall pose: graceful, formal, slightly forward-facing, like a luxury period-drama character reveal.
Main typography: On the far left, place very large vertical black brush-calligraphy reading {argument name="main title" default="薛宝钗"}. Beneath it, smaller vertical text reads {argument name="subtitle" default="红楼梦·蘅芜君"}. Add one small red seal stamp beside the title.
Left-side small labels: Include exactly 3 stacked beige stamp-like tags with dark borders and Chinese text: 1) “端庄温润”, 2) “金玉良缘”, 3) “藏愚守拙”.
Story cards: Arrange exactly 8 numbered vignette cards around the central figure, connected by thin gold lines and triangular geometry. Each card has a dark circular number badge, a Chinese title, a small sepia photo-like inset scene, and two short lines of Chinese explanatory text. The 8 cards are:
1) Top-left card, number 01, title “薛家入京 宝钗初至”, showing a young woman arriving among attendants.
2) Top-right card, number 02, title “蘅芜苑中 香草清芬”, showing a pavilion garden scene.
3) Upper-right card, number 03, title “金锁随身 金玉之说”, showing an indoor seated figure with a blurred face.
4) Mid-right card, number 04, title “冷香丸意 温厚藏心”, showing a young woman writing or studying at a desk.
5) Lower-right card, number 05, title “诗社唱和 才情自敛”, showing a small group gathered around a table with books.
6) Mid-left card, number 06, title “扑蝶花间 春影微动”, showing two young women in a garden.
7) Lower-left card, number 07, title “宝黛钗局 情礼相衡”, showing three people in conversation.
8) Bottom-left card, number 08, title “金玉成婚 梦醒红楼”, showing a wedding or formal gathering scene.
Bottom title plaque: On the pedestal base, add a long gold-edged plaque with the slogan {argument name="bottom quote" default="一柄团扇，半生金玉"} in black Chinese calligraphy.
Bottom timeline: Along the very bottom edge, add exactly 5 milestone labels connected by a thin gold line with small circular nodes: “入京”, “蘅芜”, “金锁”, “诗社”, “成婚”.
Visual style: Highly detailed cinematic period-drama poster, antique Chinese manuscript collage, refined feminine luxury, realistic fabric embroidery, botanical peonies, shallow depth of field, soft warm lighting, museum-quality texture, aged paper grain, ink wash details, gold filigree borders, elegant editorial layout.
Constraints: Use Chinese text exactly as specified for all visible titles and labels. Keep the central figure dominant and full-body. Include exactly 8 numbered vignette cards, exactly 3 left-side tags, and exactly 5 bottom timeline milestones. Do not add extra numbered sections, modern objects, logos, watermarks, or English text.
