Prompt
[skeletal figure] in a hooded cloak occupies the left-center of a 3:2 frame, filling roughly half the image vertically and sitting slightly left of exact center with generous negative space to the right that the smoke trails into. The subject is shown in a close-medium portrait with the head and upper torso framed, the face oriented three-quarter toward the right, and the hands visible near the mouth to hold the prop. Lighting is low-key studio portraiture with a cool slate key from camera-left, gentle rim separation from camera-right, and deep, soft shadows across the cloak and background. Surface details are tactile yet not hypertextured, with the subject's prominent planes catching narrow highlights and the prop edges producing small specular glints. A ribbon of translucent smoke curls across the right two-thirds of the frame and sits slightly forward of midground to create layered depth. Keep the background a near-black studio plane that fills the upper 60 percent with subtle gradation and no distracting elements. Render as fine-art portrait photography with controlled contrast, natural film-like grain, and muted desaturated highlights to preserve the noir mood.
