Transform this image into a pen-and-ink drawing in the style of Pushkin's manuscript illustrations, while strictly preserving the exact facial features, expression, and costume from the attached reference photo of Andreev. CRITICAL — CHARACTER ACCURACY (MAXIMUM PRIORITY): Andreev: Must remain EXACTLY as in the reference photo — his specific face, eyes, nose, mouth, cheekbones, blond hair, and expression. His face must be immediately recognizable. Do not alter, idealize, or generalize his features — only change the rendering technique to ink lines. Costume: Must be EXACTLY as in the reference — he wears a formal black tailcoat, black formal trousers, white shirt, white cravat (tie). Expression: His face shows determination, purpose, and quiet resolve — he is on a mission. DO NOT change, idealize, or generalize his face. Keep every unique, specific feature from the reference photo. Preserve his hairstyle and hair color exactly as in the reference photo (blond). Scene: A street in Saint Petersburg, late 19th century, daytime or early evening. Andreev walks along the street carrying two instrument cases: In his left hand: A violin case (dark, velvet-lined, brass latches) — standard rectangular shape. In his right hand: A second case (dark leather, shaped to match the instrument inside, brass latches) — the instrument exactly as in the reference image. He is approaching a musical instrument workshop (мастерская) — a small shop with a sign above the door reading "МАСТЕРСКАЯ МУЗЫКАЛЬНЫХ ИНСТРУМЕНТОВ" or simply "МАСТЕРСКАЯ" in ornate 19th-century Cyrillic letters. The workshop has a large window displaying instruments — violins, bows, and other tools of the trade. The street is typical 19th-century Petersburg — cobblestones, cast-iron streetlamps, elegant buildings in the background. His posture shows purpose — he is walking with determination, carrying the cases with care. He is heading toward the workshop door. The mood is purposeful and transitional — he is moving from one phase of his journey to the next. Style: Pure black ink on clean white paper — no colors, no sepia, no grey tones. Pushkin's characteristic style: light, flowing pen strokes, delicate linework, generous white space, slightly sketchy and unfinished quality. Andreev's face must be immediately recognizable (from reference). The cases are clearly distinguishable — the rectangular violin case and the shaped case for the instrument. Technical: Monochrome, black ink on white paper, Pushkin illustration style, character strictly based on reference photo, maximum facial accuracy, exact formal costume, carrying two instrument cases, approaching a music workshop, street scene, --ar 2.39:1
