PROMPT
Create a 4K photorealistic cinematic portrait of a man reading a book in a quiet library aisle, standing beside a tall wooden bookshelf filled with hardcover books. He is gently leaning his left shoulder and upper back against the bookshelf in a relaxed posture.

He is wearing:
a taupe chunky rib-knit cardigan with large buttons

a dark brown leather belt
The man is holding an open hardcover book with both hands at chest level, looking down at the pages with a focused, neutral expression.
