Figure at cosmic curtain edge

A solitary figure stands on a narrow ledge at the lower center of a vertical 9:16 frame, facing a torn cosmic curtain that peels downward like heavy fabric to reveal turbulent galaxies behind it, and the mood is quiet awe. The curtain has frayed, fibrous edges and a satin-like sheen in deep indigo and violet, while the revealed galaxies spin in electric blue and magenta with flecks of gold light like distant embers. Surfaces remain mostly unlettered and clean, with only subtle micro-scratches and abstract seams on the curtain fabric to suggest age. The immediate foreground is a rough stone ledge under the figure and a small handheld lantern casting a warm gold rim onto skin and fabric to anchor scale. Focus resolves crisply on the figure and the torn edge of the curtain with a moderate depth pushing the swirling galaxies slightly softer into the distance. Light wraps softly around the figure for gentle separation, combining cool violet-blue ambient illumination with warm lantern highlights. The viewpoint reads slightly low and intimate with a tight vertical crop that keeps the figure and the torn curtain dominant while leaving expansive negative space above to emphasize height. Materials emphasize tactile contrasts: satin fabric, coarse stone, and warm human skin. The style is cinematic painterly with subtle grain and soft brush textures, and the curtain appears to drift slowly downward to suggest motion and reveal.
