Vibrant Textile Market: Merchant and Crowd

Photo-realistic, cinematic market scene at golden hour: a lively open-air market where a textile merchant stands behind a stall covered with a riot of fabrics—silks, batiks, velvets and woven scarves—displayed on racks and draped over a wooden frame. Rich patterns leap in electric blues, ruby reds, emerald greens, and golds, shimmering under striped canvas awnings. A diverse crowd surrounds the stall: shoppers in traditional and casual clothes, a child tugging at a fringed scarf, a tailor measuring fabric with chalk, neighbors chatting and bargaining with smiles. The ground is cobbled; baskets of yarns and dye pots sit beside leaning ladders; distant stalls blur into a bustling backdrop. Warm late-afternoon light casts long shadows, highlighting silk sheen and textile textures, with a shallow depth of field focusing on the merchant and merchandise while the busy crowd remains softly in motion.
