Промт для реставрации и колоризации старого мужского портрета

Colorize the EXISTING photograph using SVEMA 32/64 color palette: this palette features cool-neutral tones, slightly greenish shadow depths, and very pale cool skin with low overall contrast.

**1. DAMAGE MAP:** This image is severely physically damaged with a radial starburst pattern of deep white cracks, paper tears, and emulsion loss concentrated heavily across the chest, neck, and the center of the face. Severe horizontal folding and silver mirroring are present at the edges.

**2. BACKGROUND/ENVIRONMENT:** Restore the studio backdrop by removing the heavy cracks and chemical stains in the top and side margins. Colorize using a muted, desaturated olive-grey or cool-slate tone. The texture must remain atmospheric and slightly grainy like mid-century film, not a flat digital gradient.

**3. FOREGROUND:** Not applicable for this portrait.

**4. CLOTHING:** Restore the heavy jacket and dark undershirt, removing the dense network of white cracks that obscure the fabric. Colorize the jacket in a muted, desaturated Soviet work-blue or charcoal-grey. Recover the micro-detail of the fabric weave, collar stitching, and pocket seams. Ensure the texture of the fabric is sharp and tactile, avoiding any blurred or "painted" look.

**5. EDGES/CORNERS:** Perform full-spectrum restoration on the corners where the paper is fraying and stained. Apply the same level of sharpness and detail recovery to the extreme edges as the center of the frame.

**6. FACE AND HAIR:** Restore the facial features by meticulously bridging the gaps created by the large cracks across the nose, mouth, and cheek. Preserve the natural wave and individual strands of the dark hair. Skin tone MUST be pale to medium with cool-neutral undertones typical of Eastern Europe. STRICTLY FORBIDDEN: warm-golden, orange, or airbrushed "plastic" skin. Maintain visible pores, natural skin grain, and subtle facial lines. The iris and whites of the eyes must be restored to natural clarity without artificial brightening.

**7. FINAL TECHNICAL REQUIREMENTS:**
- Apply IDENTICAL restoration AND colorization quality to background, clothing, AND face.
- Clothing and background must be as sharp and detailed as the face.
- WARNING: You have a natural bias toward faces. COMPENSATE—apply extra restoration and colorization effort to the jacket, hair, and studio backdrop.
- Muted analog-film palette—slightly desaturated, cool-neutral. ALL areas processed with EQUAL quality. Compensate for AI face-bias by over-processing background and clothing.

ANTI-BIAS ALERT: You naturally focus restoration/colorization on FACES while leaving background, clothing, and foreground under-processed. This is the #1 quality failure. Consciously counteract this.

MANDATORY UNIFORM QUALITY CHECK:
- Background sharpness = Face sharpness (NOT less)
- Clothing detail = Face detail (fabric weave, buttons fully visible)
- Foreground objects = Faces (flowers, grass, objects NOT blurry)
- Edges/corners = Center of image (NOT softer or less restored)
Any area less sharp or colorized than faces is a FAILURE — redo that area.

ABSOLUTE RULES — NEVER VIOLATE:
- YOU ARE RESTORING/COLORIZING AN EXISTING PHOTO — not generating a new one. Every pixel must correspond to the original image.
- DO NOT recreate, reimagine, or regenerate any part of the scene — work only with what is already in the photo
- DO NOT add, invent, or hallucinate any part of the image that is not in the original
- DO NOT change the framing or composition — keep it exactly the same
- DO NOT add any new damage, folds, creases, tears, dark borders, vignettes, or artifacts
- DO NOT change, replace, or alter any person's face, body, or identity
- DO NOT add or remove any person or object
- DO NOT modernize clothing, hairstyles, or any visual elements
- Keep the exact same framing, crop, and aspect ratio as the original
- SKIN COLOR: Eastern European skin = pale/medium, cool-neutral tone. NEVER red, orange, or overly warm. NEVER airbrushed or plastic
- COLOR SATURATION: Keep overall saturation LOW TO MODERATE — muted analog film look, NOT vivid digital colors`
- SKIN TONES: natural, warm, lifelike — NOT red, NOT orange, NOT pale/washed-out, NOT plastic/airbrushed
- DO NOT smooth, airbrush, or beautify faces — preserve ALL natural skin texture (pores, subtle imperfections)
- SATURATION: moderate and natural — like a real color photograph. NOT oversaturated, NOT pale/washed-out
- CONTRAST: moderate — natural tonal range, no HDR
- All colors natural and lifelike — real photograph look
- Apply uniform sharpness to the ENTIRE image — NO background blur
