Using the single uploaded photo as the sole visual reference, create one 3:4 vertical experimental art poster. Generate each photo independently: do not make a collage or combine images. Use an art-magazine aesthetic that blends generative art, vintage printing, and minimalist editorial design.
Overall layout:
Divide the canvas into two exactly equal 50% sections, top and bottom, with the same width and a direct join. Use no border, gap, or overlap. The upper half is a real photograph; the lower half contains a line-engraving illustration and typography on art paper.
Upper half — preserve the original photo:
Preserve the original photo’s subject, pose, setting, composition, perspective, materials, natural lighting, colors, and spatial relationships as faithfully as possible. Allow only slight exposure correction, editorial-grade color grading, and any necessary natural outpainting. Do not arbitrarily add, remove, or reconstruct elements. Fill the frame without stretching or distortion.
Lower half — flowing parallel-line engraving:
Reconstruct the same scene as a refined flowing parallel-line artwork. Integrate the subject, background, and negative space into one continuous line system. Use curves that bend, converge, open out, and vary in spacing and density to create a subtle embossed sense of volume; let the lines then return naturally to parallel. Do not use simple outlines, contour lines, solid color fills, wireframe models, mechanical distortion, broken lines, crossing lines, jagged edges, or chaotic ripples.
Keep the lines exceptionally fine and smooth, with delicate ends and slight variation through their middle, for a refined engraved quality. Scale the illustration’s subject to 20%–35% of the lower section and place it centrally or according to visual balance. Use warm white, cream, or light warm-gray art paper for the background, leaving generous negative space. Extract one or two representative low-saturation colors from the original photo; use line density, spacing, and tonal depth to create light and shadow. Add only very subtle paper fibers, print grain, and ink texture. Avoid heavy shadows and realistic 3D effects.
Typography:
Add a meaningful English headline, a brief subtitle, and a small amount of supporting text relevant to the photo’s subject. Set the headline in a delicate, elegant Didot/Bodoni-style serif; use restrained sans-serif lettering for supporting text. Arrange the typography freely with a clear hierarchy. Do not obscure the illustration. Aim for the character of a refined art magazine and gallery poster.
Strict requirements:
All text must be genuine, accurate, and readable. Do not use garbled text, pseudo-English, decorative numerals, watermarks, or new logos. Keep the design refined, restrained, and airy, emphasizing sculptural linework and artistic negative space. Output only one complete, high-resolution 3:4 vertical poster.
