# Classic Indian Oil Painting Diwali Lamp AI Photo Prompt

> Become the subject of a 19th-century-style Indian oil painting holding a Diwali lamp. Upload your photo to Gemini or ChatGPT.

## Prompt

```text
Use my uploaded photo as the only face reference. Keep the person's face, features, skin tone and expression exactly as in the uploaded photo: same eyes, nose, lips, jawline, hairline, moles and marks; do not beautify, slim, lighten or age them. Paint her as a classical academic oil portrait in the style of late-19th-century Indian painting: a rich crimson silk saree with gold zari falling in soft folds, traditional gold jewellery, holding a brass oil lamp whose glow lights her face and hands. A dark palace interior with a carved pillar and a heavy drape behind. Visible brushstrokes, glazed layers, warm umber shadows, canvas weave, subtle craquelure. Her face keeps the exact features, skin tone and expression of the uploaded photo, painted realistically, not idealised. Gilded frame not shown; no signature, no text. Aspect ratio 9:16.
```

## Variants

### For men

```text
Paint him in a cream angarkha and a red turban, holding the lamp in a palace interior.
```

### Couple

```text
Paint the couple standing together, she holding the lamp and he behind her.
```

## Tips

- "Not idealised" keeps your face from turning into a generic model.
- Canvas texture makes prints look authentic.
