## Prompt

```text
Create a hyper-realistic museum-style product photograph of a single ancient {artifact_type} centered on a pure black background. The vessel is tall and ovoid with a narrow foot, rounded shoulders, and a wide flared rim, made of reddish-brown weathered clay with heavy age patina, mineral deposits, chips, scratches, white abrasions, and fine cracks. Add carved ornamental decoration: one continuous geometric band around the neck just below the rim and raised swirling vine-like relief patterns on the body. The front right side has one large jagged vertical rupture exposing the hollow interior, with multiple broken clay shards still attached around the opening; the opening runs from the upper shoulder down toward the lower body and shows a warm copper-orange hammered, dimpled inner surface catching light. Use dramatic studio lighting from the upper left and subtle warm internal/reflected glow inside the broken cavity, emphasizing rough ceramic texture, fractured edges, depth, and archaeological realism. Composition is a straight-on three-quarter product view, full vase visible with slight shadow at the base, high contrast, sharp focus, ultra-detailed, no labels, no people, no extra objects, no watermark.
