Prompt
Generate an image of a middle-aged American poet in a contemplative pose, sitting in a serene outdoor setting, possibly surrounded by Greek or Connecticut landscape elements, with a subtle nod to his literary achievements and personal life. The style should be a warm, realistic, and introspective representation, capturing the essence of James Merrill's persona as a celebrated poet, novelist, and playwright, with a hint of his gay identity and later life struggles with AIDS, while conveying a sense of sophistication, literary depth, and emotional complexity.
