Noblewoman Manga Portrait with Ceremonial Greatsword

Black and white manga close-up portrait of a solemn noblewoman with twin-tail bangs framing her face—thick, straight strands that fall symmetrically on either side, contrasting with the rest of her tied-back hair hidden beneath an ornate, high-collared cloak. Her bangs sharply silhouette her downturned eyes, which carry a quiet storm of doubt and discipline. Her expression is composed yet fragile, lips slightly parted as if caught in silent praye She stands with squared shoulders and her chest subtly pushed forward in a dominant posture. Her fitted royal corset gown is depicted in stark black-and-white contrast, with clean, sharp lines outlining intricate gold-thread embroidery patterns, rose-gold epaulettes, and stylized armor plating across her shoulders and chest. A massive ceremonial greatsword is strapped across her back, only the ornate hilt and part of the blade’s silhouette peeking into view behind her shoulder The background is stark white, with no textures or gradients. The line art is clean and expressive, using thick and thin lines for dramatic contrast. Strong blacks define her attire, while her skin remains untouched, pale and ethereal. The composition is reminiscent of 1990s manga, avoiding 3D shading, instead using flat tones and emotional clarity. The visual style borrows cues from fashion photography—stylized, intimate, with a poised, editorial elegance.
