A sun-printed cyanotype — prussian blue, ghostly white silhouettes.

Swatch shows the same line — Signal over noise — rendered in this material, so the surface is the only variable.

Prompt formula

SURFACE:  Deep Prussian blue field (#1B3E6F to #0E2647) with pure paper-white silhouettes. Hand-brushed emulsion edge — visible uneven brush strokes, streaks and a ragged coated border with raw white paper showing outside it. Paper fibre and tooth read through the blue; a few pale bleach-out blooms and small warm sepia foxing spots as the ONLY non-blue accent. Everything is a contact silhouette - soft-edged, flat, slightly ghosted, no modelling, no gloss, no glow — this is wet chemistry on paper, not a digital or neon blueprint. Hero - one large botanical specimen whose single stem branches into three seed-pods, each pod a crisp white silhouette with its label hand-lettered on a small specimen card pinned beside it. Title reversed out in clean white silhouette lettering. Feels like an 1843 Anna Atkins cyanotype plate.
SKELETON: auto by page role (cover / chapter / list / compare)
DEVICE:   the page's argument drawn as a form native to this material
END:      Full-bleed 16:9 — render DEVICE on the SURFACE, per the page's composition.
CRITICAL: title in clean legible English; NEVER invent extra words or non-English glyphs;
annotations only as marks / numbers / dimension lines; no UI, no cards, no captions.
