Structural cues: Botanical curves; Ornamental frames; Female figures; Muted natural colors. Accent cues, used sparingly: Soft focus; Mist and backlight; Painterly composition; Handcrafted prints. Composition: Vertical formats, frame compositions, a central figure. Type and lettering: Curvilinear serifs or hand lettering. Let one material quality come from the second style: Soft focus, backlit mist, hand coated printing that keeps the paper texture. Mood: Luxury, Intimacy, Calm. Color: build on #e9ddbe, #829270, #6f3f35 with a single accent drawn from #d6c7aa, #897562, #3d342c. Constraints: do not imitate, reference or name any specific artist, studio, brand, character or copyrighted work. Produce an original composition in the general period languages described above.

# Cautions carried from each entry
# - Art Nouveau: Stock vine ornaments stay superficial. Carry the line through the whole composition.
# - Pictorialism: Applying blur uniformly afterwards leaves no trace of anyone following the light, and the result is simply a photograph out of focus.
