Anhui — От горной тропы к речной пристани

Create an original collectible regional ceramic PRINTING DECAL, not a mug or mockup. The supplied image is a drawing/style benchmark only: replace every reference-region subject and word with the researched region described below. Make a confident, rewarding composition whose tea craft, architecture and landscape belong together.
OUTPUT: PNG RGBA, native 3840 x 1280 px. Keep every mark inside x=60..3780 and y=110..1170; use nearly the whole long strip. The final export is 3840 x 1152 px for 250 x 75 mm. Do not shrink the entire design to a central 16:9 picture. Preserve normal object proportions and complete edge objects.
ALPHA: genuine transparent exterior and natural transparent openings inside the drawing. No white or cream rectangle, paper texture, sky wash, sea fill, provincial silhouette, checkerboard, aura, gradient or drop shadow. Unpainted architecture, water and negative openings reveal alpha. Colour belongs to actual drawn objects, never a vague backdrop. Do not reproduce any opaque field visible in the reference.
For C1–C6, create ONE connected varied panorama with two or three unequal anchors, overlapping near/middle/far scales and smaller discoveries. Connect through real terrain, streets, roofs, branches and human actions, not dotted diagram routes. No two-row sticker sheet, isolated equal scenes, caption boxes, repetitive generic gardens or an empty band under the title. Do not impose a percentage of blank space. C7 instead follows its explicit irregular album direction below.
English lettering only, exact spelling, dark clear capitals for allowed captions. One main regional title. No Chinese characters, logos, invented seals, pseudo-writing, promotional superlatives or health claims. A short legible caption is preferable to microscopic text. Respect the stated distinctions between growing tea, processing it, trading it and serving it. A full research inventory need not become a printed gazetteer.

COLLECTION: A SWEEPING REGIONAL JOURNEY. Follow GD03: energetic angular pen contours, bold slanted region lettering, selective directional hatching and three clear inks. Compose a shallow diagonal or S-shaped journey carried by a real regional movement motif. Bold near craft and people interlock with farther landmarks and terrain. Clean graphic edges, never watercolour, fuzzy labels or sticker scenes.
REGION: ANHUI.
PALETTE: #263B45, #A65336, #8FA98C. Preserve this regional colour family; first colour supplies the strongest contour/text. Extra dark/light rendering colours and full-colour watercolour are not wanted.
RESEARCHED CONTENT:
Use the map's distinctive regional vocabulary: granite Huangshan peaks with sculptural pines, white open Huizhou walls and dark horse-head gables, an old stone arch bridge, a high Jiuhua temple, broad Yangtze navigation with a single junk, Lake Chaohu and lower western Dabie hills. Tea provides the human foreground: a Lu'an firing basket, long Taiping Houkui leaves on a mesh press, delicate Maofeng sorting, Qimen black-tea rolling, and a Huoshan wrapped yellowing bundle. Add Xiuning and Jingxian work as smaller discoveries near appropriate southern roofs. The northern plains remain low and open, not a wall of plantations. A river vessel expresses trade and journey rather than proving a particular historic shipment. Leave water transparent, defined by banks and a few lines. White-walled architecture means unfilled alpha interiors with dark contours, not a large white printed rectangle.
AUTHORED COMPOSITION:
A sweeping diagonal starts with a Guapian maker and tilted bamboo basket at near left, rises through a Dabie picking path, then curves across a stone bridge toward a Huizhou workshop and right-hand river sail. The angular Huangshan ridge provides a high counter-motion behind Qimen and Houkui work. A few pine branches overlap the slanted ANHUI title; the word must remain complete. Give the closest tea leaves decisive lines, distant houses fewer marks. Huoshan cloth and Jingxian sieve anchor the inside of the S curve, while a tiny Jiuhua temple terminates a separate ridge. Energy comes from real movement and topography, not random speed lines or generic smoke.
LETTERING PLAN:
ANHUI once. Supporting text only HUANGSHAN, DABIE, QIMEN, HOUKUI, YANGTZE, JIUHUA; no other microtext.
REGIONAL SAFEGUARDS:
Keep Guapian bud-free and Houkui flat and long; Maofeng is a smaller tender shoot. Qimen black tea and Huoshan yellow tea are distinct processes. No monkeys picking Houkui, no health claims, no all-province plantation. Unnamed map bridges/pavilions stay generic local architecture. Huangshan and Dabie have different silhouettes. No claim that every village stands beside the same river.
FINAL STANDARD: sharply drawn object edges, deliberate line hierarchy, vivid meaningful local differences and a recognisable whole place. Protect the main title and key silhouettes; never solve complexity by making everything equally tiny.
