Photo to Ukiyo-e Style Print AI Image Prompt
Transform this photo into an authentic Japanese Ukiyo-e woodblock print style. The person is depicted with traditional Ukiyo-e facial features and proportions while maintaining a recognizable likeness.

Include a vertical text cartouche with Japanese characters. Visible wood grain texture from the printing process. Washi paper texture throughout.
Content: Subject (photo of person) → style transfer (Ukiyo-e woodblock print) → facial features & proportions → outlines & flat colors → palette (indigo, vermillion, gold, soft green) → background elements (waves, cherry blossoms, Mt. Fuji) → text (vertical cartouche with Japanese characters) → textures (wood grain, washi paper).
Pros: Distinct style with detailed technique (lines, colors, textures).
Cons: Background elements and text may overcrowd the composition; dependent on input photo.
Reference image: Explicitly relies on reference image
