Thoughtful Elegance: Black-and-White Portrait

Create an elegant, high-contrast black-and-white studio portrait of an adult woman in a three-quarter pose with a thoughtful expression. Use Rembrandt-style lighting to create a gentle triangle of light on the cheek and rich midtones, with eyes in crisp focus and a subtle catchlight. The skin texture should be natural and smooth, showing character without harsh defects. Hair neatly styled in soft waves or a refined updo. Outfit should be timeless: a high-neck black dress or blouse. Minimal jewelry, neutral gray backdrop, and a shallow depth of field to lightly blur the background while keeping the face razor-sharp. Aim for a classic fine-art photograph mood, with a filmic grain optional and a full range of tonal values from deep blacks to bright whites. Overall mood: contemplative, serene, and elegant.
