The Lion Keeper of the Orbital Colony

An illustrious lion rendered in lush oil painting style, standing atop a carved marble pedestal inside a futuristic space colony. The lion's mane glows with warm amber and gold tones; fur is textured with thick impasto brushstrokes. Behind and around it extends a curved glass viewport showing a star-filled void and a distant blue-green planet. Inside the colony, sleek chrome corridors, domed ceilings, and softly glowing panels create a sci-fi gallery atmosphere. Dramatic chiaroscuro lighting with rich browns, golds, copper, and accents of cobalt blue and silvery highlights. The composition blends Renaissance portraiture with space-age scenery, evoking majesty and guardianship of humanity's orbital frontier.
