Art style: Cinematic Hyper-realism. Vertical 9:16 cinematic graphic novel illustration of the same empty kitchen in Alexey’s contemporary Russian apartment. Keep the exact visual layout: matte off-white upper cabinets, dark lower cabinets, worn dark countertop, small stove with one warm under-cabinet light, old metal sink, narrow table in the foreground, cold blue evening window with distant apartment blocks and faint rain. On the dark open kitchen shelf on the right side of the frame, place one wide ceramic mug close to the very outer edge. The mug has a milky gray glaze with uneven melted-looking streaks, a worn rim, and its handle faces right. It is the only emotionally charged object in the kitchen, but it should remain naturally part of the space, not a product shot. Leave the rest of the shelf sparse and dark. Camera from the doorway, medium-wide diagonal view across the kitchen. The mug sits in the right third of the frame, clearly readable; the warm stove light and cold blue window shadows create restrained visual tension. No people visible. Contemporary Russia, psychological techno-thriller, intimate domestic grief, restrained domestic realism. Realistic painted comic-book style, clean linework, soft painterly shading, cold blue-gray palette, deep near-black shadows, sparse warm amber practical light, subtle film grain. No people, no silhouettes, no hands, no text, no logos, no watermark, no glamour, no cyberpunk neon, no horror decor, no luxury interior. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ FINAL STYLE ENFORCEMENT (this is the authoritative rendering directive — it overrides any style wording elsewhere in the prompt): Render this image in the following art style: A highly detailed digital style characterized by dramatic chiaroscuro lighting, a desaturated color palette of cool blues and warm ambers, and a somber, atmospheric mood. It blends hyper-realistic textures with cinematic composition, reminiscent of modern film drama and classical Dutch painting. Every surface, skin, fabric, material, and environmental element must be rendered in this idiom. Reference images context (match the visual style and elements from these): - Керамическая кружка в темной кухне (prop): Массивная керамическая кружка с потеками глазури стоит на краю деревянного стола в полумраке уютной кухни. Атмосфера меланхоличная, подчеркнутая контрастом теплого света от плиты и холодного синего сумеречного света из окна.
