The Majestic Presence of Al-Mutanabbi in His Study
Al-Mutanabbi stands tall at his wooden writing desk in a dim Abbasid-era study. The camera captures him from a wide, slightly low frontal angle, showing the entire stone-walled room lit only by a flickering oil lamp. Scrolls, parchment, and an open ink pot are scattered across the desk. Behind him, a narrow arched window reveals a sliver of moonlight. His cloak drapes gently behind him, motionless in the still air. The atmosphere is quiet, reflective, and heavy with purpose. The composition is balanced, with warm golden-orange light falling across the desk and deep shadows adding contrast. Camera: wide-angle lens, low angle, soft golden lamplight, warm and historical cinematic tone.
