> If you consider the list a reasonable substitute for artist names, I’d ask you for a prompt that replicates the common Rutkowski + Mucha style using just the styles listed.

Not looking at the list, but replacing “by Greg Rutkowski” with “detailed realistic muted fantasy” and “by Alphonse Mucha” with “Art Nouveau” seems to work pretty well for reproducing both “by Greg Rutkowski” alone and for the Rutkowski + Mucha combination. (Oddly, replacing either of those, but not the other, does not work as well for reproducing the combination effect as replacing both.)

Rutkowski + Mucha is as much of a cargo cult as Rutkowski alone, even if it is a longer-lived one.
