Specter Over Roman Ruins in Watercolor

An ethereal specter drifts through ancient Rome, rendered in soft watercolor. The ghost is translucent, wearing a flowing toga that dissolves into mist, tinted in pale blues, silvery greys, and hints of gold. The setting is a moonlit Roman forum: towering marble columns, a broken arch, cracked mosaic floors, and distant statues. Warm torches flicker, casting amber pools of light that contrast with cool nocturnal shadows. The background shows stuccoed insulae and a night sky visible through arches. Washes are wet-on-wet for the sky and background to create hazy atmospherics, while the specter gets a delicate glow and a faint white rim to emphasize translucency. Composition centers the specter among the ruins with receding perspective into a soft horizon. Mood is haunting and poetic, blending historical grandeur with supernatural mystery.
