Photorealistic depiction of daily life in ancient Teotihuacan, with people walking and trading on a stone avenue flanked by stepped pyramids.

A photorealistic depiction of daily life in the ancient city of Teotihuacan at its height, around 500 CE. A wide avenue within the city, inspired by the Avenue of the Dead, lined with stepped stone platforms and pyramidal structures in the distance. The city feels large and carefully planned, with stone-paved walkways and residential compounds nearby. People go about their everyday activities: artisans working with stone, pottery, or textiles; traders exchanging goods; families walking together; and individuals carrying baskets or tools. The people wear simple woven garments typical of ancient Mesoamerica, with patterned textiles, cloaks, and sandals. Subtle body paint or decorative elements inspired by Teotihuacan murals appear on clothing and architecture. The scene is brightly lit by the highland sun, with earthy tones, painted surfaces, and a calm but active atmosphere focused on ordinary urban life rather than ceremonies or rulers. See more
