About this prompt

We made the picture above with this prompt on Google Flow. It has a history scene style, warm morning light and a busy, ancient mood, and it sits in the History collection.

The frame is 16:9 (wide), and our original measures 1376 × 768 pixels. That shape is an exact fit for YouTube thumbnails, X posts and desktop wallpapers; LinkedIn posts and Facebook posts take it with a small crop. It was made with thumbnails in mind.

Lighting: Warm morning light
Mood: Busy, ancient
Use case: Thumbnails

Make this prompt your own

Subject: The opening words, “A reconstruction of the ancient Lothal dockyard with wooden boats tied in a large brick basin”, are the subject. Swap in your own subject and keep the rest to get a new picture in the same look.
Light: The words “morning light” set the light. Swap them for “lamp light” or “bright daylight” to change the time of day and the feel.
Rules: It ends with “No text”, so the tool adds no letters or signs. Leave that in and add your own words later in any editor.

Same theme, another look

In other light: Pyramid Builders (desert sun), Early Steam Train Days (daylight) and Ancient Stone Observatory (bright daylight).

In another style: Court Scribe (historical portrait), Dandi March to the Sea (historical art) and Astronomers at the Stone Observatory (history painting).
