This is form 2 - where i remove the artist names & go with an artist neutral prompt. Note: I did swap out flux 1.1 pro for flux 2 pro - i get tired of flux 1.1 imposing its look on me. (its kind of hard to walk away from). Same prompt, five models. See how the hair changes from fine filaments to thicker clumps, and how the skin goes from translucent to flat. The red gown and the gold trim shift too. Pick the one that feels closest to the painted look. Models, in order: 1. gpt-image-2 2. seedream-5.0-pro 3. flux-2-pro 4. nano-banana-2-lite 5. grok-imagine-image-2

Tags: renaissance portrait, old master painting, historical portraiture, curly red hair, renaissance fashion, pearl onyx necklace, red period gown, classical art, noblewoman portrait, dark background painting, figurative oil painting, pensive portrait, pre-raphaelite style, historical fine art, botticelli style
AI Model: gpt-image-2
Prompt: Northern strand-by-strand linear precision + Venetian luminist flesh-modelling + oil-and-tempera glazes on panel, where the linear hand resolves hair one filament at a time and sets forms as hard contours cut against an unmodulated black ground, and the luminist modelling builds flesh in translucent half-tones that turn a lit plane gently into shadow. The fusion manifests as enamel-smooth skin over meticulous linear detail, warm lights against cool half-shadows, and thin glazes stacked to a jewel-like finish, transforming any subject through a restricted lead-white, vermilion, yellow-ochre and ivory-black palette. A young woman with pale skin and long curly reddish-blonde hair, wearing a red gown with gold lattice bodice trim, white puffed sleeve inserts, a black bow at the shoulder, and a beaded necklace of white pearls and black stones. Head-and-shoulders portrait at eye level, the woman turned slightly to her right with her head angled toward the viewer, gaze directed off to the side, shoulders squared to the frame, filling most of the composition against a plain backdrop. Scene set against an undefined dark background, with a still quiet atmosphere and no surrounding elements.
