AI Drawing Prompt Reference

Draw a geometric figure based on the Verona Amphitheater. The figure includes an ellipse, two symmetric points, a rotated point, a line, a circle, a circle arc, an intersection point, and a circle sector. The construction order starts with the ellipse, then uses mirroring and rotation to generate symmetric points, connects these points with lines, defines boundaries with circles and arcs, and finally determines key points through intersections and circle sectors. Ensure symmetry and geometric relationships are maintained.
