Prompt

Create an image of a symbolic representation of social classes interacting, with a backdrop of the United States in the late 19th century. In the foreground, depict a divided society with three distinct groups: a wealthy elite at the top, a middle class in the middle, and a working class at the bottom. The wealthy elite should be shown with a subtle sense of obligation, represented by a gentle pouring of resources or support towards the lower classes, but with a clear emphasis on a hand up rather than a handout. The middle class should be illustrated as a bridge, with connections and interactions between the elite and the working class, symbolizing their role in facilitating social mobility and responsibility. The working class should be shown with a sense of dignity and self-reliance, with some individuals reaching up to accept support while others are shown working hard to improve their circumstances, embodying the ideals of individualism. The style should be reminiscent of late 19th-century American realism, with detailed and realistic depictions of clothing, architecture, and expressions. Incorporate subtle visual elements that critique social welfare, such as broken or inadequate safety nets, but also show pathways for education, employment, and social advancement. The overall mood should be contemplative, encouraging viewers to reflect on social responsibility and the complex dynamics between social classes.
