even studio-style lighting from the front-left prompts

Create a photorealistic 3D render of a floating black "A" letter geometric sculpture. The sculpture is made from a heavy, matte, porous material, resembling rough volcanic rock or textured cast iron, with clearly visible natural irregularities, pits, and a sandpaper-like surface quality. The material has no gloss—fully matte—but catches soft light at high angles, enhancing bumpiness. The object is an asymmetrical, visually confusing interlocked structure composed of thick angular slabs and sharp planes intersecting in impossible Escher-like ways. Key geometric features include: There’s a subtle engraving of the number “1” on the upper right side, flush with the surface, not colored or contrasted—just a soft indent visible under light. The background is a clean, flat light cream-beige gradient, completely smooth, noise-free. The sculpture is floating in mid-air, without a stand or platform. A soft, diffuse shadow below it on the ground plane reinforces the illusion of levitation. The lighting setup is studio-style, soft and non-directional, coming from above and slightly front-left. It’s evenly illuminating the form, revealing surface imperfections without harsh shadows. Lighting should feel realistic and neutral—no dramatic rim lights, no bloom or glare. The camera angle is slightly above and rotated about 20–30 degrees to the left, creating a dynamic diagonal composition. Depth of field should be very shallow or none at all—entire object in sharp focus. Avoid clean CAD-like shading or polygonal smoothness—preserve roughness, uneven light dispersion, and edge imperfections. The final aesthetic should feel like a real-world, modernist stone sculpture photographed in a minimal studio.

Ultra-realistic, Highly Detailed Digital Painting / Photorealistic Illustration of a modern man inspired by classical portraiture. Image Type: Ultra-realistic digital painting / Photorealistic illustration. Overall Artistic Style: Highly detailed, reminiscent of a classical historical portrait, resembling a hand-colored engraving or lithograph. Photorealistic treatment of facial features with textured, cinematic quality. Likeness: Very strong and precise likeness to the provided photo of a man with light to medium brown hair, defined cheekbones, gentle smile, and naturally expressive eyes. Lighting: Soft, even studio-style lighting from the front-left. Natural facial contours gently illuminated with fill light to soften shadows. No harsh contrasts. Depth of Field: Shallow — sharp focus on the face, blurred background. Color Palette: Warm and natural tones. Emphasis on realistic skin tones, neutral brown eyes, and soft contrast in clothing colors. Subject Details: Age: Appears in his 35s to early 45s. Expression: Calm, confident, and lightly smiling. Gaze is slightly inquisitive and warm, directly facing the viewer. Face Shape: Oval with a gently defined jawline. Hair: Color: Medium brown with slight wave and natural flow. Style: Short, combed gently back from the face, natural texture preserved. Facial Hair: Clean-shaven with subtle sideburns. Eyes: Color: Warm brown, soft and expressive. Shape: Almond-shaped with a kind, focused gaze. Eyebrows: Naturally full, gently arched, matching hair color. Nose: Straight with soft bridge, proportionate to the face. Mouth: Lightly smiling, medium lips, relaxed and confident. Chin: Smooth, proportional and softly rounded. Facial Pose: Frontal, with a very subtle clockwise tilt (~2°), just like the reference image. Clothing Details: Shirt: Light blue patterned shirt with floral or abstract design; collar open, no tie. Should reflect subtle texture and realistic folds. Inner Garment: Black undershirt faintly visible under open collar. Jacket (Optional for artistic variation): A classical-style frock coat in dark maroon or navy could be added for historic contrast while blending with the shirt underneath. Background & Atmosphere: Background: Soft, light grey-blue tone with textured, stippled or cross-hatch engraving effect — mimicking 18th–19th century historical portrait backgrounds. No gradients or heavy shadows. Mood: Calm, introspective, warm. Conveys intelligence, kindness, and composure. Rendering Quality: Resolution: 8K Detail: Ultra-fine rendering — individual hair strands, textured skin (pores, natural shadows), realistic eye highlights, and cloth weave. Color Gradations: Natural transitions, soft and historically appropriate. Focus: Shallow depth — sharp on facial features, background softly out of focus.
