The prompt

Turn my photo into a portrait that looks like an old master oil painting from the Renaissance period. Keep my face recognisable: same features, skin tone and expression. Style: oil paint on wood panel, smooth blending, fine glazing layers, soft craquelure cracks in the varnish, slightly yellowed with age. Pose: three-quarter view, hands folded or holding [an object that says something about me, e.g. a book, a teacup, a paintbrush]. Outfit: period clothing in rich velvet and linen in [colours], with a simple period headdress or none. Background: a dark interior or an arched window opening onto a hazy landscape with tiny trees and a river. Light: soft light from a high window on one side. Avoid: naming or copying any specific painter or famous painting, modern objects, text. Format: 3:4 portrait in an ornate gilded frame, or frameless: [choose].
