Art style: Cinematic Neo-Noir.
An ornate stone hall lit by candlelight, where a smiling golden mask hangs on the wall, but its shadow cast behind it is twisted and sinister, holding a hidden dagger. Over-the-shoulder composition looking toward the mask. Warm flickering candlelight in front, cold blue shadow behind. The mood is deceptive, tense, and quietly menacing. Palette of gilded amber and warm gold in the foreground contrasted against deep cold blue and black shadow.

FINAL STYLE ENFORCEMENT (this is the authoritative rendering directive — it overrides any style wording elsewhere in the prompt):
Render this image entirely in "Cinematic Neo-Noir" style. Match the lighting grammar, material response, colour science, level of realism / stylisation, line weight, and shading model typical of "Cinematic Neo-Noir". 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 Neo-Noir" idiom, not in any other medium.
