Governing idea
The outer frame uses narrow antique gold, lapis, ivory and tent-derived geometric bands. The upper-right plaque occupies open sky without covering Moses. The lower ivory textile backing begins below his folded hands and reserves a wide central-right field for the four-line verse.
The complete attached burgundy curtain is selected from the original illustration with an authored full-canvas contour. It composes above the frame and backing, crossing the left perimeter and far-left backing corner while remaining visibly attached to the tent. It does not intersect the lettering. Moses stays behind the backing, avoiding a second character-mantle treatment like David.
The narrative verse is presented without quotation marks:
And there has not arisen
a prophet since in Israel
like Moses, whom the LORD
knew face to face
Deuteronomy 34:10 • ESV
P052 Bold 700 renders MOSES at 138px. Sanctification P052 Medium 500 renders the verse at 80px with 94px baselines and the reference at 57px. The measured verse ink has 54 master pixels above and 53 below within its reserved band.
Scope
Only the provisional Normal composition is rendered. The proposed printing behavior remains a hypothesis until this layout is accepted: Normal would use frame, backings, curtain, and text; Borderless would use backings, curtain, and text; Textless would use frame and curtain; Boundless would use the unmodified illustration.
No production printings, finish masks, text masks, harness fixtures, moving-light review, or final approval were created.
