That... ... ... is very subjective, my dude....
depends on the style
where do I even begin?

Something like Toshokan no Daimajutsushi? Or Witch Hat? for the environment and nuance?
Or do you like style of Boichi in something like Origin, Sun Ken Rock, etc.? for the artistic face?
Lots of Seinen romance have detailed arts, like Otoyomegatari, etc.
Usually you'll find even more blink and detailed clothes and background in Chinese-themed romances, like Koutei Heika, etc.
Or the absolute famous like Berserk or Vagabond?

This is a lot of a loaded question. There are a lot of seinen and josei titles, particularly in the drama or slice of life space, that include some pretty fantastically detailed artwork, but whether they hit that particular aesthetic you're looking is really up to the beholder.

YMMV, but some titles that pop to the top of my head:
Berserk is my gold standard for hyper detailed fore- and background artwork (extreme violence and mature subject matter warning of course)

Welcome Back, Alice includes wonderfully (hah!) evocative imagery but the story really isn't for everyone. DMCA'd, alas

The Green Yuri adds an excellent third dimension to the usual B&W fare with a sublime use of green.

I don't read Jojo's but I can appreciate the strong sense of shape the author brings to the table. See above comment on aesthetics.

I need to find a copy of Ice Age Chronicles since I had a chance recently to see some of the jaw-dropping original manuscripts :meguupog:

The list goes on and on and oooon 🎶

Edit: you may want to take a peek at https://forums.mangadex.org/threads/manga-page-sharethread.1581579/ and see if anything sparks joy :thumbsup:
