Art style: Cinematic Neo-Noir.
A close-up of intricate clockwork gears and worn grooves carved into brass and stone, shot from a slightly overhead angle with shallow depth of field. Some grooves glow faintly, showing repeated wear; a single new path is being carved fresh and bright among the old. Warm workshop lamplight, amber and copper tones against deep brown shadow. The mood is intimate and revelatory, suggesting mechanism and the possibility of change. Palette of burnished bronze, deep umber, and soft golden highlights.

FINAL STYLE ENFORCEMENT (this is the authoritative rendering directive — it overrides any style wording elsewhere in the prompt):
Render this image entirely in "Cinematic Neo-Noir" style. Match the lighting grammar, material response, colour science, level of realism / stylisation, line weight, and shading model typical of "Cinematic Neo-Noir". 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 "Cinematic Neo-Noir" idiom, not in any other medium.
