Introspective Bath by a Soft Lamp

Cinematic, dramatic scene of a man sitting in a vintage porcelain bathtub, knees drawn up and shoulders slightly hunched, gazing downward in deep introspection. The bathroom is dimly lit by a single warm amber lamp perched on the tub rim, casting long, soft shadows and a golden glow across the water and rising steam. Water droplets cling to his forearms as steam swirls around and a fogged mirror hints at his contemplative profile. The composition emphasizes chiaroscuro: warm lamp light against cool blue shadows, high contrast with a subtle film grain. A close-up on the face and hands with a shallow depth of field, while the tiled wall recedes into blurred darkness. The mood is melancholic, reflective, and cinematic.
