A hyper- detailed black and white portrait of a tormented man, his face contorted in anguish as his own hands press into his skin, distorting his features in an unnatural, almost surreal manner. The wrinkles and pores of his skin are etched with extraordinary precision, resembling the cracked surface of ancient stone or withered parchment inscribed with forgotten runes. His eyes, caught between squinting and bulging, appear to hold the weight of an unspoken cosmic burden, as if he glimpsed into the abyss of time itself. Faint, ethereal wisps of shadowy tendrils and spectral mist swirl around him, subtly shaping into ghostly faces whispering forgotten knowledge. His hands appear partially petrified, veins and sinews transformed into living obsidian, as if he is slowly turning into stone under an ancient curse. The background is an abstract void, shifting between a celestial nightscape and a storm of ink, accentuating the stark contrast of his tortured expression. Fine scratches and chaotic lines weave through the composition, evoking an almost mythological prophecy carved into reality. The lighting is dramatic and high- contrast, emphasizing the depth of suffering while maintaining an eerie elegance. Rendered in ultra- realistic, 8K resolution, the image blends elements of dark fantasy, surreal horror, and gothic mysticism, creating a hauntingly beautiful depiction of existential agony
