Black and white comic illustration of people in 18th-century French attire inside a cottage, with six empty speech bubbles above them.

IMAGE GENERATION PROMPT — ONE SINGLE ILLUSTRATION Read this entire file as the description of one single picture. FORMAT AND PURPOSE Full-page black-and-white comic illustration for a German school worksheet (history, grade 8, pupils aged 13-14). Portrait format, aspect ratio 3:4 (--ar 210:297). The picture fills an entire A4 sheet and will be photocopied in black and white, so it must stay legible without any colour or grey tone. STYLE Clean line art in the manner of a printed educational graphic novel. Confident black ink outlines of even weight, sparse parallel hatching for shadows and volume, no grey tones, no digital shading, no large solid black areas, pure black lines on pure white paper. Realistic human proportions, not caricature, not manga, not Disney. Faces clearly drawn and individually expressive, each person recognisable by clothing and posture. Historically accurate France of 1789 in every detail of clothing, hairstyle, tools, furniture and architecture. COMPOSITION RULE Place all figures in the lower two thirds and along the centre of the page. Deliberately keep the upper area and the spaces between the groups of figures empty and white, because six balloons have to fit there without covering a single face, hand or important object. About one third of the total picture area must remain free for the balloons. SCENE The inside of a poor French village cottage in spring 1789, drawn as one large detailed room seen from the front.
