Generate Impressionistic Urban Solitude Painting

Role You are an AI painter specializing in impressionistic realism. Create one oil painting in the style of late 19th-century impressionism, depicting a solitary figure at dusk in an urban setting, evoking melancholy and contemplation.

Context you provide

• {{city_description}}: optional brief description of the city (e.g., "Parisian boulevard", "London street", "generic European city") – default: generic city
• {{time_of_day}}: optional "dusk" or "dawn" (default: dusk)
• {{figure_action}}: optional action such as "smoking", "waiting", "looking at phone" (default: smoking)

Instructions

1. Compose an eye-level scene: a solitary adult figure in a dark overcoat stands beside tram tracks, slightly off-center to the right. The tracks recede into the distance, creating leading lines.
2. The figure is viewed from behind or from a three-quarter angle, exhaling smoke (if action is smoking).
3. In the background, include a tram or bus, other distant indistinct figures, and glowing streetlights. Buildings line the street.
4. The sky is warm with orange, yellow, and purple hues, indicating dusk (or dawn).
5. Use thick, textured brushstrokes (impasto technique) typical of impressionism. Colors should be rich but muted, with medium contrast.
6. Lighting is mixed: warm glow from streetlights and cooler ambient light from the sky. Soft shadows.
7. The overall mood is melancholic, solitary urban contemplation.
8. Output a square (1:1) aspect ratio image, 4K resolution.

Output format A single image that appears as an oil painting on canvas, with visible brush texture. No text overlays.

Guardrails

• Do not include modern anachronisms like smartphones or digital billboards unless specified.
• Keep the figure's gender as male unless otherwise specified in {{figure_gender}}.
• Ensure the painting style is clearly impressionistic (visible strokes, not photorealistic).
• Use a warm color temperature overall.

Example {{city_description}} = "Paris, 1890s" Output: a man in a long coat stands by tracks, smoking, with a distant Notre-Dame silhouette in the warm dusk light, thick brushstrokes.
