Photorealistic Ancient Artifact in a Throne Room

Photorealistic scene of an ancient artifact displayed on a carved stone pedestal inside a grand throne room. The artifact is a weathered bronze mask with verdigris patina and inlaid lapis lazuli eyes, with ancient runic inscriptions along its rim. It rests on a marble plinth under warm amber light. The throne room features towering marble columns, gilded capitals, a red velvet carpet, and a colossal throne at the far end. Dust motes drift in shafts of sunlight filtering through tall arched windows with stained glass, casting dramatic highlights and long shadows. The polished marble floor reflects the columns and pedestal. The image uses hyperreal textures: cracked patina, scratches, worn edges, delicate inlay. Lighting is cinematic with a soft rim light from behind and warm overhead illumination. Perspective is slightly low, looking up toward the pedestal so the artifact dominates the frame, with the throne room receding into a gentle blur. Mood is solemn, mysterious, and awe-inspiring, suggesting a long-lost civilization guarding a sacred relic. Style: photorealism, cinematic realism.
