Art style: Ghibli-style 2D animation, Victorian greenhouse aesthetic, blizzard outside, warm lantern light inside, lush greenery, 4K, cozy atmosphere. SETTING: A warm mid-morning view across the floating market water. In the mid-ground stands the River Vendor Woman (character 1) in her fruit-laden boat, surrounded by baskets of ruby lychee, jasmine, and mango, raising one hand gently toward the distance. Far across the glassy golden water, small and soft-focused, sits the Old Boatman's moss-covered wooden boat at rest, the tiny weathered figure just visible. Lotus leaves and floating petals dot the water between them. Behind, the weathered stilt houses and drying laundry glow softly. COMPOSITION & CAMERA: Medium shot favoring the vendor woman in the lower-mid frame, over her shoulder toward the distant boat, eye-level slightly raised, upright on a 9:16 vertical canvas, no tilt. The vertical frame places her in the foreground-mid and the distant boatman as a small warm accent higher and deeper in the frame. LIGHTING: Warm honeyed golden morning light from the upper right, soft and glowing, backlighting the drifting steam and haze between the two boats, gentle rim of light on the vendor woman. MOOD & ATMOSPHERE: Tender, wistful, warm — a quiet, wordless goodbye between kind strangers, closure of a gentle human connection. CHARACTER ACTION & EXPRESSION: The vendor woman lifts one hand in an easy, warm wave, her face lit with a soft affectionate smile, eyes crinkled with kindness, posture relaxed and generous. In the far distance the boatman is a small still figure, at peace. COLORS: Honey amber, coral, jasmine white, ruby lychee red, mango orange, with cool teal reflections and soft indigo shadow in the deeper water. TEXTURES & MATERIALS: Weathered wet wood, mossy hulls, woven bamboo baskets, glossy fruit, rippling gold water, sun-warmed timber of the stilt houses behind. DEPTH & LAYERS: Foreground — fruit baskets and boat prow; midground — the waving vendor woman; background — the distant resting boat of the boatman and the glowing stilt village. WEATHER & PARTICLES: Clear warm morning, faint golden haze and drifting steam between the boats, tiny motes, gentle water sparkle. MICRO-DETAILS: Light catching the crinkle of her smile, ripples spreading softly on the water, a floating jasmine petal drifting between the two boats, faint steam threading the golden air. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ FINAL STYLE ENFORCEMENT (this is the authoritative rendering directive — it overrides any style wording elsewhere in the prompt): Render this image entirely in "Ghibli-style 2D animation, Victorian greenhouse aesthetic, blizzard outside, warm lantern light inside, lush greenery, 4K, cozy atmosphere" style.

Round friendly face, laugh lines around bright dark eyes, and glossy black hair tied back in a loose bun beneath a checkered cloth scarf. She wears a simple short-sleeved floral blouse in soft coral and rolled cotton trousers, with a woven bamboo hat hanging at her back.
