Art style: Cinematic Realistic.
Full-length view, the entire figure visible from head to feet, standing upright, centered in a period early-20th-century chemistry laboratory. A skeptical older male scientist, around 60, of European descent, with a lined face, sharp gray eyes narrowed in doubt, a high forehead, and a neatly trimmed silver-gray mustache and short beard. Thinning gray hair combed back. Lean, slightly stooped build. He wears a long buttoned white lab coat over a stiff-collared shirt, dark waistcoat and tie, dark trousers, and polished black leather laced shoes. One hand rests skeptically on a wooden bench crowded with glass flasks, retorts and bottled reagents; the other holds a pair of round spectacles. His expression is dismissive and unconvinced, one eyebrow raised. Warm gaslight glow, dark wooden shelving lined with amber bottles behind him.

FINAL STYLE ENFORCEMENT (this is the authoritative rendering directive — it overrides any style wording elsewhere in the prompt):
Render this image entirely in "Cinematic Realistic" style. Match the lighting grammar, material response, colour science, level of realism / stylisation, line weight, and shading model typical of "Cinematic Realistic". Keep the subject, composition, camera angle, lighting direction, and colour palette from the description above — but EVERY surface, skin, fabric, material, and environmental element must be rendered in the "Cinematic Realistic" idiom, not in any other medium.
