Generate a portrait (4:5) image: An authentic-looking 1850s daguerreotype portrait of a stern gentleman with a top hat. Silver-plate tonality with a mirror-like sheen, slight tarnish and scratches at the edges, the stillness of a long exposure, a formal pose, and an ornate oval frame. Scanned like a museum archive. Avoid: color, modern, smiling, digital.
Works best in a fresh chat. Ask for changes in follow-up messages instead of re-pasting.
