FACE MATCH IS THE TOP PRIORITY. This is the exact woman in the attached reference photo - not a lookalike. Copy the reference face feature by feature - hairline, hair, brows, eye shape and spacing, nose, lips, jawline, cheek structure, skin tone - every proportion identical, so anyone who knows her recognises her instantly; do not beautify, slim or genericise. From the reference keep only the face and hair.

An ultra-real street photograph: a narrow lane of ochre houses, one cobalt door, a jasmine creeper on a trellis. On the lane wall beside the door a tall painted mural: MURAL LAW: the painted figure on the wall carries her exact reference face - every feature and proportion identical, natural skin tone, eyes their real size - painted with visible brush texture in true wall perspective; the crown, feather and flute are painted adornments only. - painted in a lehenga of peacock blues with a painted floral crown behind the hairline, a painted flute held across the chest a clear space below the lips, the painted hands simple and complete, GAZE of the painted face to the viewer with painted catchlights. Late sun from camera-right rakes the wall, the painted face brightest on the wall, a real potted tulsi on the step below. Nothing readable anywhere. 24mm, vertical 9:16. Only this one painted face. No text anywhere.

LIGHT LAW: the face is lit only by this scene's own light - same direction, same colour temperature, same softness, with shadows falling exactly as the environment dictates - never a pasted studio face.

FINAL CHECK: compare the face against the attached reference - the identity must match exactly; if any feature differs from the reference, it is wrong.

How to use this prompt

Provide a clear reference photo of the woman whose face features need to be replicated. Ensure the background elements are described such as the ochre buildings, mural details, and lighting conditions for accuracy. A good result will have the painted face match the reference exactly, with proper lighting and proportionate details correctly rendered. Adjust the mural's lighting if the features appear too flat or disconnected from the surroundings.
