Art style: Cinematic Realistic. Historical Russian cinematic realism, 35mm film aesthetic. Close-medium shot at the wooden table. Two worn early-18th-century leather-bound volumes ('Grammar' and 'Arithmetic') rest on the rough wood. Mikhail has just closed one volume, his hand resting firmly on the embossed leather cover, looking upward with eyes shining in memory and self-confidence as he recites text by heart. Warm candlelight, authentic historical props. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 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): - Mikhail Lomonosov: 19-year-old young Russian man, fair skin weathered by northern cold, lean but strong build, tall, serious thoughtful face, high cheekbones, straight nose, gray-blue eyes, light brown to dark blond medium-length unkempt hair, rough northern Russian Pomor peasant clothing, coarse linen shirt, worn wool caftan, boots, fur-lined hat in winter scenes, determined and intelligent expression
