Prompt
Create a realistic portrait of Mark Lilla, a middle-aged American man with a gentle yet introspective expression, sitting in a classic New York City setting, perhaps in a Columbia University office or a cozy coffee shop, surrounded by books and papers, reflecting his work as a prominent political scientist, professor, and writer; incorporate subtle hints of his intellectual pursuits and notable literary works, such as "The Once and Future Liberal" and "The Reckless Mind: Intellectuals in Politics", in a dignified and contemplative style reminiscent of a New Yorker magazine profile, in a medium that resembles a high-quality oil painting or a detailed charcoal sketch.
