## Prompt

```text
[DESTINATION] = {city_name}
[LANDMARK] = {primary_landmark}

Create a vertical 4:5 alcohol-marker travel poster of [LANDMARK] in [DESTINATION], viewed from a low pedestrian viewpoint. Make it feel like an affectionate, imperfect travel memory, not a photorealistic rendering, postcard, map, landmark collage, or cinematic panorama.

TYPOGRAPHY

Keep the top 14–16% open warm ivory paper.

At the top center, write exactly:

“[CITY NAME]” — large, bold black marker capitals.

Below it:

“[SHORT TRAVEL PHRASE]” — smaller vermilion-red handwritten marker lettering.

Keep both lines highly legible and separate from the landmark. No additional text.

SCENE

Place [LANDMARK] prominently in the upper-center, preserving its most recognizable silhouette and defining features while simplifying unnecessary detail.

Reduce surrounding architecture to 2–3 broad building masses. Add one simple local vehicle, a few tiny pedestrians, and a young female traveler walking across the lower-center foreground while looking upward.

Dress her in a vivid vermilion-red coat over cream clothing, with natural warm-peach skin tones. Make her warm colors contrast against the cool slate-blue and pale blue-gray architecture.

DEPTH & MARKER STYLE

Foreground: saturated colors, 2–3 overlapping marker passes, visible chisel-tip strokes, darker shadow overlaps, and thick broken black contours.

Midground: medium-density slate-blue / blue-gray marker strokes, 1–2 passes, moderately thick broken outlines.

Background: progressively reduce saturation, density, contrast, detail, and contour weight. Use pale blue-gray single-pass strokes with thin, incomplete outlines that gently merge into the ivory sky.

Use broad vertical strokes for buildings and short directional strokes for streets. Leave approximately 40% of the warm ivory paper exposed.

STYLE CONSTRAINTS

Keep the illustration simplified, tactile, graphic, airy, nostalgic, and slightly imperfect, with only major architectural forms and a few window suggestions.

Avoid: photorealism, repetitive window grids, dense skyline detail, realistic reflections, uniform outlines, digital gradients, watercolor effects, black-filled shadows, excessive detail, clutter, or extra typography.

Overall: sophisticated mid-century-inspired travel-book illustration recreated with expressive alcohol markers, with strong foreground-to-background atmospheric perspective and an unmistakable sense of place.
