Lead Room
Leave space in the direction of a gaze or movement so viewers can understand where the figure is looking or going.
Prompt
Render only this one edited view as a single full-width scene. No side-by-side comparison or second version. Create generous lead room in front of White's rightward gaze. Reframe the same physical view toward the right so White now falls near the left third and the original half-open doorway is visible ahead of him in the right portion of the picture. Keep White on the exact same spot beside the same stone steps: do not move him independently across the courtyard. The steps, wall, paving and existing doorway must all shift together as the camera reframes. Keep his original side profile, right-facing shoulders and feet, hat, sword, accessories, body scale and expression. Reveal the existing courtyard ahead of him rather than adding new architecture. The much larger open space in front of his gaze must be obvious at thumbnail size. No arrows, lines or text.

Effect comparison
In the baseline image, White faces right but is crowded against the right side of the frame, with little space ahead of the gaze. The lead-room version keeps the figure on the left, opening the stone paving and right-hand doorway in front. The viewer can follow the gaze into the surroundings, giving the figure's orientation room to extend.
