"Create a highly detailed, faithful reproduction of the iconic 1912 painting 'The Bathing of a Red Horse' by Russian artist Kuzma Petrov-Vodkin. The scene depicts a muscular, vividly red horse standing knee-deep in calm, shallow water under a bright, clear sky. A young, nude male rider with a pale, almost luminous body sits upright on the horse’s back, holding the reins with calm confidence. His posture is serene and statuesque, evoking classical sculpture. The background features a distant, simplified landscape with low hills and sparse trees under a vast, pale blue sky with soft, warm clouds. The composition uses Petrov-Vodkin’s signature spherical perspective — slightly distorted, as if viewed through a convex lens, giving the scene a dreamlike, monumental quality. The color palette is bold and symbolic: intense crimson-red for the horse, cool blues and whites for water and sky, pale flesh tones for the rider, and muted earth tones for the background. The brushwork should reflect early 20th-century Russian modernism — smooth yet expressive, with clear outlines and simplified forms. The mood is mystical, serene, and heroic — evoking themes of youth, purity, and spiritual awakening. Avoid photorealism; aim for painterly, stylized realism in the manner of Petrov-Vodkin’s original. Include subtle texture of oil paint on canvas. No modern elements, no text, no frame."
