Style prompt

Caravaggio + Luis Royo, where Caravaggio's chiaroscuro lighting with hard shadow edges amplifies melancholic beauty, and Royo's hyperrealistic digital rendering with smooth gradients heightens gothic elegance. The fusion manifests as dramatic single-point lighting with hyperrealistic detail, preserving original subjects and settings.

Model-neutral prompt

Effect-only prompt

The same look with the recipe removed — no artists, no wild card, no movements. Describes only what the style does to a surface.

A single concentrated light source carves forms from deep darkness, producing abrupt, hard-edged shadows and intense value contrast. Surfaces resolve with meticulous, near-photographic detail, while smooth tonal and colour gradients refine skin, fabric, metal, and atmosphere. Melancholic beauty and dark elegance emerge through controlled illumination, with the original subjects, poses, and settings preserved intact.
