Old Books on a Wooden Shelf in a Dim Library

A dimly lit historic library with a tall wooden shelf packed with old books. Leather bindings, cracked spines, gold-embossed titles, and weathered parchment. The wood is dark oak with visible grain and ornate carvings. Soft amber light spills from a brass wall lantern, casting warm pools of glow and long shadows across the shelves. Dust motes drift in the air. A rolling ladder leans beside the shelf. The floor is worn oak, partly covered by a faded Persian rug. In the background arched windows with leaded glass reveal blue twilight. The atmosphere is hushed, scholarly, and reverent, as if the library preserves centuries of quiet study. Color palette warm browns, copper and sepia with hints of green from old velvet straps. The camera angle is a wide shot with shallow depth of field, focusing on leather and wood texture while the background blurs. Render with photorealistic detail, cinematic lighting, and a strong sense of historic ambiance.
