Dark Historical Podcast Cover

Create a dark cinematic podcast cover in a 16:9 horizontal format, painted like a dramatic Baroque oil painting with golden-brown chiaroscuro lighting, aged parchment textures, and a historical mystery atmosphere. The scene shows a weary medieval scholar or miller seated at a rough wooden desk in the right-center foreground, face intentionally obscured by a dark square shadow, one hand pressed to his temple while the other writes with a feather quill on handwritten papers. On the desk include 5 main foreground objects: an open occult notebook filled with diagrams, loose manuscript pages, a burning wax candle, a wedge of hole-filled cheese, and scattered larvae; include exactly 9 clearly visible larvae around the cheese and papers. Behind him, blend a surreal cosmic sky with stars, astrological circles, a cratered moon, golden nebula dust, and faint mathematical manuscript marks, merging into a late-medieval village with a windmill on the lower left and shadowy church officials or inquisitors on the upper right. Add exactly 4 visible text blocks: a large cream-colored Chinese main title on the left reading main_title, a smaller subtitle beneath it reading subtitle, a tiny bottom-left tagline reading tagline, and a parchment note on the right reading document_note. Use elegant traditional Chinese typography, off-white ink for the title, muted gold for the small tagline, high contrast but weathered edges, museum-poster composition, no modern objects, no clean digital gloss, richly detailed, ominous, intellectual, and suitable as a historical philosophy podcast episode cover.
