Grand Staircase Above the Clouds

Create a cinematic surreal architectural scene of a vast weathered pale marble grand staircase descending steeply from a monumental palace into an endless sea of clouds. The viewpoint is from near the top of the stairs, looking downward along the steps toward the misty horizon, with ornate classical balustrades on both sides, massive stone pillars at the upper left, square pedestal posts topped with carved urn finials, cracked stone texture, and soft atmospheric haze. Place exactly one object on the lower foreground steps: a closed deep red umbrella lying diagonally across the marble, with a black curved handle and pointed tip, acting as the only bright color accent. Beyond the staircase, show thick rolling white and gray clouds filling the entire valley, with a small distant domed temple or pavilion barely visible emerging from the clouds near the center-right, and faint mountains on the far horizon. Lighting should be soft dawn light through overcast clouds, with muted gold and silver tones, gentle volumetric rays, realistic shadows, and a moody dreamlike atmosphere. Use a vertical 4:5 composition, high-detail photorealistic fantasy matte painting style, grand scale, elegant melancholy, no people, no text, no watermark.
