FINAL STYLE ENFORCEMENT (this is the authoritative rendering directive — it overrides any style wording elsewhere in the prompt):
Render this image entirely in "Cinematic Realistic" style. Match the lighting grammar, material response, colour science, level of realism / stylisation, line weight, and shading model typical of "Cinematic Realistic". Keep the subject, composition, camera angle, lighting direction, and colour palette from the description above — but EVERY surface, skin, fabric, material, and environmental element must be rendered in the "Cinematic Realistic" idiom, not in any other medium.
Character appearance reference (MUST match exactly):
- Екатерина II: Empress Catherine II of Russia, middle-aged with dignified poise, wearing an ornate royal embroidered gold and imperial velvet dress, imperial crown, ermine mantle, powdered 18th-century hairstyle, detailed historical costume, cinematic lighting
