浮世繪木版畫海報

Turn the uploaded travel photograph into a single standalone 3:4 vertical before-and-after poster. The top half preserves the original photograph in full, holding the identity and number of the subjects, the composition, the perspective, the key architecture or natural outlines, the original light and the relationships within the scene, with only light publication-grade grading. A clean, restrained off-white horizontal rule separates the two halves. The lower half reorganises the same scene as a genuine Edo-period Japanese ukiyo-e woodblock print, keeping the most recognisable subjects and spatial relationships from the photograph while deliberately changing the information density, the areas of colour and the compositional centre of gravity. It is not a photo filter over the same framing.

Use an off-white washi paper-fibre ground, deep indigo and ink-black carved outlines, and a limited overprint palette of vermilion, ochre, cyan-blue and grey-green: flat fields of colour, diagonal hatching, short chisel marks, layered contours, slight ink starvation, dry-brush gaps, ink bleeding into the paper fibre and a little registration drift. Clouds, foliage, roof tiles, ridgelines, roads, lanterns, buildings and every other element of the setting are distilled into rhythmic woodcut pattern derived from the input photograph. The lower half does not reproduce the photograph's full framing; instead it builds Edo-print breathing space by enlarging or reducing the subject to its essentials, compressing the background and leaving continuous washi white space. Colour is extracted from the original photograph and compressed — do not apply a fixed sea-blue template, and if the original is not a seascape, do not add waves or coastline.

Use only elements genuinely visible in the original photograph. Do not invent landmarks, people, animals, vehicles or cultural symbols. The top half must stay real photography; the lower half must be a woodblock translation of the same place and the same subject. Do not produce an ordinary filter, modern flat vector, flat cartoon, realist oil painting, 3D render or gradient plastic texture; do not turn the whole photograph blue; do not alter the structure of buildings or the outline of mountains. No text, no title, no subtitles, no fake kanji, no seal, no logo, no watermark, no original/AI corner badge and no decorative border.
