Gilded Arcades: Victorian Lights and Ironwork

An opulent Victorian-style arcade hall with soaring vaulted ceilings and intricate stone and plaster carvings. Ornate cast-iron arches frame the walkway, while warm gas lamps glow along the corridor, casting amber light on a checkerboard marble floor and brass railings. Storefronts with stained glass windows, velvet drapes, and lace-trimmed signage line the sides. A gentle mist swirls in the air, catching the lamp light to create halos. Perspective is a wide-angle, slightly low viewpoint along the corridor, with a dramatic vanishing point at the far arches. Color palette of golds, warm ambers, deep emeralds, and burgundy accents. Texture-rich details: hammered iron, carved stone, glossy wood, and frosted glass. Style blends Victorian Gothic revival with subtle steampunk touches, producing a cinematic, photoreal composition with crisp details in the architecture and a soft bokeh in the foreground.
