I ran the same Close and Chagall prompt on five models. Watch how far each one leans toward one painter: on some the grid lines stay sharp and blocky, on others the colors bleed together like stained glass. The red sail is the best tell, look at whether it holds together as one glow or splits into separate patches. Models, in order: 1. seedream-5.0-pro 2. nano-banana-2-lite 3. gpt-image-2 4. grok-imagine-image-2 5. muse-image-1.0 Reference image: https://images.nightcafe.studio/ik-seo/jobs/kLYeeFbwm2N7zXUoz6eT/kLYeeFbwm2N7zXUoz6eT-3dZe_-adjusted/junket.jpg?tr=w-1600,c-at_max

AI Model: seedream-5.0-pro
Prompt: Chuck Close + Marc Chagall, where Close's modular cell assembly creates faceted color planes through grid structured patches, and Chagall's leaded color fields produce glowing transmissions via separated hue zones. The fusion manifests as irregular polygonal shards with dark separating lines and reflective light bleed, transforming any subject through tessellated luminous handling. A traditional Chinese junk boat with large red and orange sails and a dark wooden hull. Wide shot at eye level, the main junk angled diagonally across the frame with its large sail filling the center, a smaller boat alongside, and water reflections in the foreground. Scene set in a calm harbor at dusk, with traditional East Asian buildings along the shore and misty mountains in the distance.
