Transform the reference image into a traditional cyanotype-style print while preserving the original composition and subject placement. Replace the photograph with a handcrafted aesthetic using deep Prussian red paper and bright white exposure values. Reconstruct the subject as a semi-translucent, X-ray-style silhouette with a glowing white skeletal structure and faint internal anatomy visible through the body, while keeping the outer silhouette recognizable.

Turn the background into a richly textured cyanotype wash with uneven chemical staining, watercolor-like density variations, paper fibers, soft brush marks, and irregular exposure edges. Preserve the direction of the lighting, but reinterpret the image as a photographic contact print rather than a digital color shift. The result should resemble an authentic handmade print, with luminous white details against saturated red paper.

Create a red cyanotype variant in which the iron salts are replaced with red axicle compounds, producing deep crimson tones instead of blue. The paper base must be deep red, and the exposed areas must be pure white. Use absolutely no blue or cyan tones anywhere in the image; use only red and white.
