Neo Romanticism Art

Image Brief — “Britian. A Chocolate State of Mind.” (Landscape / Conference Hall)

Visual Concept:
A photographic, data-style image capturing the absurdity of corporate branding and political satire. The chocolate bar spelling “Britian” is the central focus. The scene is staged in a conference hall, emphasizing the formal-but-absurd atmosphere of a high-profile political event.

Core Elements:
	•	Chocolate bar front and center, wrapper crumpled, spelling clearly visible.
	•	Backdrop / environment: realistic conference hall — lectern in the frame, faint rows of seating or stage elements, subtle signs of a political event. No office props.
	•	Palette: predominantly blue tones (lighting, hall décor, banners), with small Tory-signifier accents (navy, subtle red) to hint at political context.
	•	Orientation: landscape (wide) — must match the style and aspect ratio of other blog images.
	•	Lighting / style: naturalistic photography; soft, realistic shadows; slightly moody, surreal undertone; no cartoonish or illustrative effects.
	•	Mood / atmosphere: dry, ironic, subtly surreal — visually echoing Tom Kite’s sardonic, satirical voice.

Typography (optional):
Small text on wrapper: “Have a break from reality” in clean, bold type, integrated naturally into the photographic scene.

Use / Context:
	•	Featured image for blog post “Britian. A Chocolate State of Mind.”
	•	Must work as both thumbnail and full-size blog header.
	•	Maintain photographic, slightly surreal style consistent with other blog imagery

Inspiration is Hannah Hoch, Jean-Michel Basquiat, John Stezaker

Cinematic Historical Photograph, Gritty Realism, Chiaroscuro Lighting. A tense, high-stakes chess match taking place between two seasoned pirates inside the cramped, dimly lit stern cabin of a rocking galleon at sea during the night.

The Players: On one side sits a grizzled, older Pirate Captain with a heavy grey beard and a scarred face, leaning over the board, his hand rubbing his chin in deep concentration. Opposite him is a younger, cunning Quartermaster with a gold tooth and a confident smirk, holding a clay pipe.

The Board & Pieces: Between them is a heavy wooden table stained with grog. The chessboard is carved directly into the tabletop, with squares made of inlaid mother-of-pearl and burned wood. They are playing with the custom pirate-themed chess set (previously designed): The Captain's side uses pieces carved from yellowed whalebone (King with tricorn, Ship Rooks), and the Quartermaster's side uses pieces cast from dark, tarnished iron. A bone "Knight" piece is currently threatening an iron "Queen."

The Atmosphere: The cabin is lit by a single, swaying oil lantern hanging overhead, casting long, moving shadows and illuminating the smoke in the air. Mugs of rum, a flintlock pistol, and rolled charts are cluttered around the board. Outside a stern window, a dark, stormy ocean is visible. The photo has a film grain texture.
