Using a top-down angle, position the ancient book on the left side of the frame, with the open pages extending to the right, forming a natural diagonal line that guides the viewer's gaze from the golden cover to the text content. Incorporate the top edge of the dark display case in the background and retain the beige display fabric in the foreground to highlight the main subject while enhancing depth. It is recommended to use a standard lens to ensure clear details of the book's texture and text, avoiding any distortion in the image.
