Prompt

A stunning, ultra-detailed cinematic portrait featuring a woman's torso and face, illuminated by extreme, high-contrast Chiaroscuro lighting, creating intense, parallel striped shadows across her skin from an unseen slatted source like Venetian blinds or palm leaves. The subject's eyes are closed in a serene yet sultry pose, her glossy, wet-look lips slightly parted, contrasting with the smooth texture of her radiant, warm-toned skin and flowing dark hair. The dominant colors are rich amber and deep umber highlights against an absolute, crushed black background, emphasizing the dramatic interplay of light and shadow, characteristic of extreme theatrical or studio lighting. The artistic style is photorealistic high-fashion editorial, shot using an 85mm prime lens with a very shallow depth of field at f/1.4, ensuring razor-sharp focus on the illuminated areas of the face while rendering the black backdrop completely soft. Post-processing includes strong cinematic color grading with boosted saturation and warmth in the highlights, deep shadow crushing, subtle film grain overlay, and an overall moody, dramatic, and intensely atmospheric aesthetic captured in 8k resolution.
