Studio Portrait Paired with a Matching Stylized Mural

The goal is a high-resolution studio photo in which THE_SUBJECT's identity strictly follows the uploaded reference image — facial features, skin tone, body proportions, hairstyle, facial hair, and overall appearance must not be reinterpreted or stylized in any way. THE_SUBJECT stands naturally in front of a plain concrete or plaster wall, the shooting logic being a real person in a real studio, belonging to the realm of photography, not illustration. The key setup is in the background: painted directly on the wall is a mural far larger than life-size, depicting THE_SUBJECT's face and upper body, rendered in a clean-edged, graphic, block-color vector illustration style, yet instantly recognizable as the same person, the mural occupying most of the wall's surface. Part of the real person's body naturally overlaps and occludes a portion of the mural, a treatment meant to reinforce depth and proportion while still letting the viewer immediately understand that the mural depicts THE_SUBJECT themselves; the mural must read as genuinely painted onto the wall, not treated as floating, projected, or digitally overlaid. Lighting follows a controlled, cinematic studio approach: soft but directional, evenly covering both the real subject and the mural, using subtle contrast and color separation so the real subject and the painted mural both hold up believably and coexist naturally within the same physical space. The final effect should read with the quality of a professional studio portrait, as if shot live in front of a custom mural wall — authentic, solid, visually unified, while still allowing a clear distinction between the real subject and the stylized mural portrait behind them.
