# Darwin Tree of Life Podcast Cover - Model: [GPT Image 2](/models/chatgpt-image.md) - Creator: [Library Thumbnails (@library.thumbnails)](/@library.thumbnails.md) - Label: AI-generated - Use cases: GPT Image 2 - AI keywords: cover, illustration, vintage, portrait - Copies: 0 - Saves: 0 - Published: 2026-10-31 - Cover image: https://cdn.promptclay.com/media/v/01M69J72JJ32QX8F6QFT58E8QK/w1200.webp - Page: https://promptclay.com/prompts/darwin-tree-of-life-podcast-cover-w44ez6 ## Prompt ```text Create a cinematic 16:9 podcast cover illustration in a dark Renaissance natural-history style, like an antique oil painting mixed with fantasy scientific engraving. On the left, show an elderly Victorian-era naturalist resembling Charles Darwin seated in shadow beside stacked leather-bound books, an open sketchbook full of botanical and animal notes, loose papers, brass instruments, and a dim study wall; his face is intentionally covered by a plain vertical brown rectangular block as if redacted. The center and right side open into a glowing seascape at sunset with a sailing ship near distant cliffs, birds in flight, and a huge symbolic tree of life whose twisting branches fill the sky. In the branches place exactly 13 visible natural-history elements: a jaguar or leopard, a monkey, a bear-like mammal, a perched bird, two small birds together, a pangolin-like animal, a fox or small canine, a sea turtle, a large tortoise, a fish, a lizard or reptile, a spiral shell, and a star-shaped botanical specimen. The right background should transition into a deep cosmic blue night sky with stars, a spiral galaxy, circular scientific diagrams, fossils, leaves, insects, roots, and ocean creatures, suggesting evolution, biodiversity, and cosmic time. Use dramatic chiaroscuro lighting, warm gold highlights, teal-green shadows, intricate engraved details, painterly textures, and a mysterious scholarly atmosphere. Across the lower center place large elegant gold Chinese title text {headline_text}, with smaller gold subtitle text beneath it {subtitle_text}, flanked by thin ornamental divider lines and small decorative flourishes. Keep the typography crisp, centered, luxurious, and readable, like a premium science-history podcast cover. Overall palette: antique amber, dark forest green, deep teal, black, and luminous gold; high detail, cinematic composition, no modern objects. ``` ## Variables Replace each `{variable}` before you paste the prompt. | Variable | Label | Example | |---|---|---| | `{headline_text}` | headline text | 大自然没有设计师 | | `{subtitle_text}` | subtitle text | 达尔文与生命之树 | ## About Generates a cinematic Chinese podcast cover about Darwin, evolution, and the tree of life in an antique natural-history oil-painting style.
