Observations

Across all four renders, the style uses dense, ornamental line drawing with heavy black contours, warm orange-red color, and a parchment-like ground. Flat illustrative forms are packed with decorative motifs, fantastical creatures, domed architecture, figures, and narrative scenes in an illuminated-manuscript-like arrangement.

Earlier versions

Same code, different picture. Midjourney changed how it reads SREF codes after V6.1, so V8.2 turns this code into a new style. The old one still works: add  or .
