## Prompt

```text
Create a sophisticated vintage New York City travel poster inspired by early 20th-century American editorial illustration and Art Deco advertising. Feature a {subject} as the main subject, rendered in detailed engraved linework and vintage halftone printing. She wears an elegant 1900s–1930s-inspired outfit with a dramatic wide-brim hat, gloves, earrings, tailored coat or dress, and refined accessories. Pose her in profile or three-quarter view, looking thoughtfully toward a famous New York landmark. Place a recognizable {landmark} prominently in the background — Brooklyn Bridge, Chrysler Building, Flatiron Building, or Empire State Building — surrounded by an atmospheric historical Manhattan skyline. Add period details such as elevated railways, water towers, vintage automobiles, horse-drawn carriages, street lamps, observation telescopes, steam rising from rooftops, and subtle architectural details appropriate to the era. Use a limited {color_palette}. Add large geometric Art Deco shapes, circular sun halos, diagonal rays, architectural framing, fine stippled shading, crosshatching, distressed ink, paper grain, faded printing, and authentic screen-print imperfections. Typography should feel like a genuine 1920s–1930s travel advertisement: large bold condensed uppercase serif/sans-serif title at the top, a smaller location and historical time beneath it, and tasteful decorative text elements around the composition.
```
