# IndexStyle — https://indexstyle.org/compose?ids=azulejo+delftware
# Azulejo carries the structure. Delftware appear as accents, each further back than the last.
# Style descriptors only. Never imitates a specific artist, studio, brand or work.

An original image that takes its structure from Azulejo (Style, 15th century–) and its accent from Delftware (Style, 1600s–). Structural cues: Blue-and-white tile; Narrative panels wall-high; Repeating pattern; One body with the building. Accent cues, used sparingly: Painting in blue alone; White tin-glaze ground; Eastern motifs translated; From tiles to tableware. Composition: Set the tile grid first, compose so breaks fall on the joints. Type and lettering: Fire the inscription in the same blue and frame it into the wall. Let one material quality come from the second style: Cobalt on white tin glaze, painted in one pass with no correction. Mood: Calm, Luxury, Nostalgia. Color: build on #e9e6dd, #67635d, #171615 with a single accent drawn from #e9e6dd, #67635d, #171615. 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.

# Where the two fight
# - Roughly 1585 years apart. Keep one of them recognisably period rather than letting both drift into the middle.

# Cautions carried from each entry
# - Azulejo: Laying a large picture out without regard for the joints misaligns grid and drawing, and the wall looks like a printed sheet pasted on.
# - Delftware: Aiming to pass as real porcelain turns the thick earthenware body and the speed of the brush from virtues into faults.
