### Illustration prompt Create a richly detailed **traditional Ukrainian folk-tale illustration** inspired by the story **«Вітрова донька»**. **The illustration should be created in the same visual style as the attached reference image**, closely matching its overall artistic treatment, painterly technique, color palette, level of detail, linework, character design, lighting, texture, proportions, and traditional storybook atmosphere. The attached image should serve as the primary visual style reference, while the scene itself should faithfully represent this Ukrainian folk tale. Show the **magical moment when Тимофій first meets the Wind Father and his daughter in the supernatural wind palace**. Тимофій should be the central character: a poor but brave young Ukrainian peasant, carrying a simple travel bundle, standing in the enormous magical hall after being blown through the doorway by the powerful wind. Beside him stands the **Father of the Winds**, an enormous fantastical old man embodying the power of the wind. His clothing and hair should appear to be constantly moving in invisible gusts, with swirling air, leaves, and fragments of dust around him. He should feel powerful and otherworldly but still like a character from Ukrainian folklore rather than a frightening monster. Include **the Wind Daughter** as the beautiful focal point of the magical family. She has **deep blue eyes like the sky, a pale face like a summer cloud, a white Ukrainian embroidered blouse decorated with delicate blue patterns, and a colorful горботка shimmering with rainbow-like colors**. Her presence should feel graceful, magical, airy, and connected to the sky and wind. The enormous hall should subtly communicate that this is the home of the Winds: flowing curtains, swirling clouds, moving leaves, ribbons of air, and soft spirals of wind throughout the architecture. Keep the setting distinctly Ukrainian-folk-inspired while allowing it to feel fantastical and supernatural. Include **the Father of Trees** nearby as a secondary character, recognizable by his unusual appearance: a tall, elderly magical man with **leaves and apple blossoms growing from his head like hair**. He should have a gentle, earthy appearance that contrasts with the wild energy of the Wind Father. A small rescued **hare** can also appear naturally in the composition as the animal who guided Тимофій on his journey. The scene should capture the contrast between **wild, chaotic wind energy and the gentle beauty of the Wind Daughter**. Use dynamic swirling movement around the characters, but keep the characters themselves clearly readable. Use authentic-looking **Ukrainian traditional clothing**, historical folk-tale aesthetics, expressive faces, painterly textures, atmospheric depth, magical natural elements, warm yet slightly mysterious lighting, and the visual richness of a classic Ukrainian fairy-tale book illustration. **Do not overload the illustration with many things. Keep the composition clean, focused, balanced, and easy to read. Avoid excessive background objects, unnecessary characters, decorative clutter, or too many competing magical effects. Every element should support the main story moment.** **Leave some intentional clear/quiet space in the upper portion of the illustration for the story title, but do NOT write, draw, or include any title, letters, words, typography, captions, or text anywhere in the image.**
