Jeremiah Sits Alone Apart from the Revelers

Prompt

Jeremiah 15: 'Thy words were found, and I did eat them... I sat not in the assembly of the mockers, nor rejoiced; I sat alone because of thy hand.' Jeremiah sits alone, large and central, on a stone bench in a quiet courtyard, holding a closed scroll against his chest, while in the soft-focus background a group of revellers laugh and feast under an awning. Golden late-afternoon light. Style: a blend of photo-realism and cinema, like a still from a big-budget film. Bright, rich, saturated, luminous colour, clear daylight or glowing golden light even in dramatic scenes, never murky or muddy, crisp detail, real human faces full of emotion, shallow depth of field, subtle film grain. Simple, uncluttered composition: ONE clear scene from this chapter, with the chapter's main character or characters large, close and central in the upper and middle frame, and a simple background. No montage, no collage, no inset vignettes, no crowd of small figures competing for attention. Historically accurate ancient Near Eastern clothing, architecture and landscape. Keep the bottom quarter of the frame simple and uncluttered (ground, water or sky) so a large chapter number can be set over it. Absolutely no text, no letters, no words, no numbers, no logos, no watermark, no border, no frame.
