  • Prompt: Ultra-High-Fidelity Prompt Kabuki Actors – Utagawa Kunimasa Yakusha-e Style (NanoBanana Engine Optimized) Ultra-High-Fidelity Prompt — Utagawa Kunimasa Yakusha-e (Kabuki Actors) Optimized for Deep Dream Generator – NanoBanana Engine A horizontal Edo-period ukiyo-e woodblock print in the dramatic yakusha-e (Kabuki actor portrait) style of Utagawa Kunimasa, late 18th–early 19th century Utagawa school. Strict traditional woodblock aesthetics. No modern rendering. No digital smoothness. Composition: Five Kabuki actors arranged tightly shoulder-to-shoulder in a compressed horizontal format. Figures overlap diagonally, filling the frame edge-to-edge. No Western perspective; flat spatial logic. Background is bold vermilion red with repeating asanoha (hemp-leaf) geometric pattern, evenly spaced and precisely rendered. Vertical cream cartouches with black brush-style Japanese calligraphy positioned above and between figures, integrated into the design. Central Actor (Primary Focus): Male actor in exaggerated mie pose. Torso angled right, head sharply turned left. Brows deeply furrowed, eyes wide and glaring, mouth tight and downturned. Right hand grips a long horizontal scroll extending across the composition. Left hand partially raised, fingers splayed in tension. Wearing striped kimono in muted greens, browns, and grey-blues, layered collars, wide obi belt. Hair in traditional chonmage topknot with sharply defined black contour. Left Figures: Leftmost actor leaning inward aggressively; angular pale face, bold sideburn contour, patterned robe with strong linear motifs, stern expression. Second left figure slightly crouched; red-and-green layered garments, head tilted upward toward central figure, tense but less dominant. Right Figures: Upper right actor in deep indigo robe with white swirling wave motifs; sleeve raised dramatically framing face, narrowed eyes, severe expression. Lower right actor in red garment with circular crest patterns (mon); angled inward, one hand raised in debate gesture. Facial Style (Critical Lock): White oshiroi makeup base; bold black contour lines; sharply arched brows; almond-shaped exaggerated eyes; red accents at lips and inner eye corners. Expressions theatrical and intense, never realistic. Costumes & Pattern Density: Dense kimono patterns: stripes, crests, geometric repeats, wave motifs. Palette restricted to vermilion red, indigo blue, olive green, mustard ochre, cream, and black. Flat colour planes only; minimal tonal variation. Linework & Texture: Strong black key-line carving, slight ink weight variation, subtle woodblock registration misalignment, visible washi paper grain. No painterly brush blending. Stylistic Constraints: Fully flattened perspective; depth created only through overlap. No scenery, no realism, no cinematic lighting, no modern stylization. Must read instantly as an authentic Kunimasa yakusha-e woodblock print. Mood: Theatrical confrontation frozen mid-performance, stylized emotional tension. NanoBanana Stability: Emphasize facial exaggeration, crisp contour lines, and textile density. Suppress soft shading, modern anatomy, and digital gloss.
