What is Vintage Albumen SREF style

This visual style mimics early 19th or early 20th-century photography, characterized by deep sepia tones, noticeable grain, and a slightly faded, textural quality. It evokes a strong sense of nostalgia and history, often resembling albumen or collodion prints. Incorporating this aesthetic into your **Midjourney prompt** requires specifying details like "sepia," "aged photo texture," or citing specific historical photographers to achieve this moody and authentic **style**. Using keywords that guide the AI towards historical rendering is key for a successful **prompt** generation in this classic look.

  • Still life arrangement of ancient weathered ceramic vessels and coiled snakes on a dark surface, texture of a late 19th-century still life study, deep shadows

Frequently Asked Questions

What exactly is a Midjourney Style Reference (--sref)?

A Style Reference, or SREF, is a powerful feature that lets you use the aesthetic of a reference image to influence the style of your generations. Our library provides the direct SREF code for thousands of styles.

How do I understand and use the Aspect Ratio (--ar) parameter?

The --ar parameter controls the aspect ratio of your image. For example, --ar 16:9 creates a widescreen image. Our guide provides a full list of supported ratios.

Why is my SREF code not working?

Ensure you are using a compatible Midjourney version (v6 or newer) and check for typos. Sometimes, strong keywords in your prompt can override the style; try reducing the style weight (e.g., --sw 250).

Can I use this SREF code with a Character Reference (--cref)?

Yes, --sref and --cref can be used together. This is a powerful combination to maintain a consistent character while applying a consistent style.

Which versions support style reference?

Style Reference is compatible with Midjourney versions 6, 7, and Niji 6.

What is the default image size for Midjourney V7?

Midjourney V7 creates upscaled images at 2048 x 2048 pixels for the default 1:1 aspect ratio.

What is the default style weight and what range can I use?

The default style weight is --sw 100. You can set it between 0 and 1000.
