Prompt
Graphic colour print: a reduced dark image stencil laid over broad fields of bold invented inks, in the spirit of an ukiyo-e woodblock print, with small controlled ink skips while staying readable, paper openings intentional and no area finer than the stencil's smallest printed shape. Amaterasu, the Shinto sun goddess, emerging from the mouth of a rocky cave in full radiance: a serene noble woman in layered ceremonial robes with a magatama necklace and an elaborate hairstyle, holding up a bronze mirror that catches the first light, a huge circular halo of radiating rays behind her, gods and a shimmering rope of straw hung across the cave mouth, a wide landscape of dark rocks and a pale dawn sky.
Light: the halo of rays in bold gold and vermilion fields breaking across the dark rock stencil, the robes in white with indigo and red inks, the sky in pale peach to blue ink bands, fine ink skips in the rays; palette of vermilion, gold, indigo, white and rock-black; solemn, radiant, graphic; low angle on the cave mouth so the goddess towers in the light.
Wide 16:9 frame. A dignified, respectful depiction following traditional Japanese iconography, never comic or sexualized; no readable kanji, kana, seals, inscriptions, letters or logos anywhere.
