A strong model typically requires a large training dataset, but even with limited data, targeting key areas can yield compelling results. I tested this using Caravaggio’s "The Supper at Emmaus" as a single-image training case.

With Imagebucket, I split the painting into 15 smaller images to train a LoRA, focusing on the hands, the composition of the figures, Jesus’s face, and certain props. I’m aiming to capture the dynamic lighting and tenebrism style in the generated output.
prompt: ”score_9, score_8_up, score_7_up, score_6_up, high quality, masterpiece, 1girl”
I generated three images using a simple, bland prompt, and the LoRA worked! The true challenge, though, is testing whether this style can apply to subjects Caravaggio wouldn’t have painted.
Take a look at these stunning cat girls! I blended 60~70% Caravaggio style with 40% of another face LoRA—something Caravaggio couldn’t have imagined in a million years. The training data and LoRA download are linked below.
