The scene the art director wrote
A fictional woman in a raincoat stands under an awning in a Mexico City street, looking out at a rainy day with a mix of concern and determination, as a blurred figure of a man in the background walks towards a large storm drain, and a truck drives by with a water spray, under a grey sky with dark clouds.
Inside the house scaffold (the fixed style + safety clauses), the full prompt the painter received
Sprawling painted editorial illustration for a newspaper front page: A fictional woman in a raincoat stands under an awning in a Mexico City street, looking out at a rainy day with a mix of concern and determination, as a blurred figure of a man in the background walks towards a large storm drain, and a truck drives by with a water spray, under a grey sky with dark clouds. Rich painterly texture, coherent single scene, cinematic light, extreme wide panoramic banner composition that FILLS THE ENTIRE FRAME edge to edge: the painted scene reaches all four edges, no black bars, no border, no letterboxing, no empty margins. Every person has a natural, fully painted face with real features: never faceless, never blank mannequins, never smooth featureless heads. All people are fictional and resemble no real public figure. Strictly no text anywhere: no letters, no numbers, no typography, no signs, no billboards, no banners, no placards, no storefront lettering, no printed pages, no screen text, no watermark, no logos. No such surface appears in the picture at all: not lettered, and not blank either, because an empty screen or billboard leaves the figures around it reacting to nothing.

By Emilio Navarro · 6hAlejandro Sanz, a Spanish singer-songwriter, has published a column in the Spanish newspaper El País analysing links between Spain and Latin America.
Sanz asserted that Latinos are a great nation, defining this as a cultural community of connection rather than a political nation with borders.
He described Latin identity as a pre-verbal language encompassing Portuguese saudade, Italian maturity, the strength of Rio de Janeiro, Mexican dignity, Caribbean mysticism, and Southern European drive.
