Style Spectrum: Six Interpretations of the Same Scene, from Realistic to Flat

Anchored on a single scene, use nano-banana-2's image-to-image capability to span four style tiers—realistic photography, cinematic, thick impasto watercolor, and vector flat—forming a comparable spectrum of illustration styles. The approach is to first generate a realistic baseline image with the pipeline, then use it as an image_input reference and regenerate with progressively more abstract prompts, observing how the model compresses value levels and simplifies edges and color blocks while preserving composition and subject relationships. Suitable for illustrators defining a style direction, design teams comparing visual directions, and developers evaluating the model's style-transfer stability under reference-image constraints. Note: the style tiers and degree of image retention are creative settings, not official capability metrics of the model.
