• Used settings:

  • Prompt: Cubist style image. A chaotic and fragmented scene, dominated by stark contrasts of black, white, and shades of gray. Some small details appear with traces of green and red. The overall mood is one of intense suffering, terror, and protest. The perspective is flattened and disjointed. The painting is composed by several different scenes.In the center, a wounded horse with a spear through its body screams in agony (no rider on top of the horse), illuminated by a light bulb shaped like an eye and a flickering candle held by a ghostly figure. To the left, a bull looms over a grieving woman cradling her dead child, while below them, a dismembered soldier lies on the ground, clutching a broken sword. To the right, figures with contorted limbs and anguished faces reach out in despair, trapped within a claustrophobic, angular space.
