Prompt

Render only this one edited view as a single full-width scene. No side-by-side comparison or second version. Move the viewpoint laterally so Pi's important outer contour is projected against the existing plain ivory wall. Preserve all original jacket colors and the lighting. Make the shoulders, arms and head separate clearly from the background at thumbnail size.
