Art style: Dark Gothic Fantasy.
A heavy, leather-bound notebook lies open on a dark oak desk, illuminated by the warm glow of a brass desk lamp. A hand holds a fountain pen, finishing a sentence in elegant, firm script. The surrounding room is lost in deep shadow, focusing all attention on the act of writing. Close-up shot, studious and serious mood, rich brown and warm gold palette.

FINAL STYLE ENFORCEMENT (this is the authoritative rendering directive — it overrides any style wording elsewhere in the prompt):
Render this image entirely in "Dark Gothic Fantasy" style. Match the lighting grammar, material response, colour science, level of realism / stylisation, line weight, and shading model typical of "Dark Gothic Fantasy". Keep the subject, composition, camera angle, lighting direction, and colour palette from the description above — but EVERY surface, skin, fabric, material, and environmental element must be rendered in the "Dark Gothic Fantasy" idiom, not in any other medium.
