Maki-e Gold and Black Flutist

A vertical 2:3 portrait illustration in a luxurious Japanese maki-e lacquerware aesthetic, rendered exclusively in deep matte black and shimmering metallic antique gold. Depict [an elegant young male flutist] in a three-quarter view from mid-thigh up, serenely playing a black transverse bamboo flute held horizontally to his lips. He has [long flowing golden-blond hair], loose layered bangs, a low ponytail draped over one shoulder, refined sharp facial features, downcast eyes, and a calm, melancholy expression. He wears a formal traditional Japanese kimono ensemble featuring wide sleeves, intricate gold linework, layered inner collars with subtle geometric patterns, an obi sash, and a small folded fan tucked at the waist. Ornate gold maki-e ornamentation adorns the composition: exactly two large chrysanthemum blooms (one on the lower-left sleeve hem, one in the lower-right background), drifting clusters of tiny blossoms, speckled gold dust clouds, and delicate line art of a Japanese garden fence and tall autumn grasses along the lower edge. High-contrast black negative space, fine engraved manga-style hatching, and rich gold leaf textures. No modern objects, no text, no borders, no watermarks.
