## Prompt

```text
{
  "vibe_title_en": "Reflected Relic",
  "master_prompt": "A hyper-realistic cinematic shot of The Artisan, captured exclusively through the reflection of a jagged, antique mirror shard resting on a cluttered workbench. The setting is a dense, chaotic Relic Restoration Atelier, overflowing with stacks of ancient texts, jars of pigment, plaster limbs, and peeling gold leaf, creating a texture-heavy, busy atmosphere. The composition utilizes a shallow depth of field (f/1.4), rendering the actual subject in the background as a soft, restless blur with messy hair and rolled-up sleeves, intensely focused on a task. The sharp reflection in the mirror reveals a surreal transformation: the subject's face appears as a 'living relic,' with skin texture resembling cracked porcelain held together by kintsugi gold repairs, and makeup that looks like weathered paint. The lighting is ceremonial and dramatic, striking the mirror shard like an altar illumination while leaving the surrounding clutter in deep, warm shadows. Shot on Hasselblad H6D-100c with an 80mm lens, utilizing Fujifilm Pro 400H film stock for pastel shifts and organic grain. No neon, no digital gloss.",
