I was looking sort of mid 1700's to mid 1800's Russia Hungary and Austria. The Winter Palace would be a good thing to look at as far as what the structure looks like and Eisheth herself could be a vain evil sorceress spin on Empress Elisabeth of Austria. There is also a prevalence of nautical influences in the court as well. You couldn't go wrong with playing up a sexy pirate queen look if the Romanov and Hapsburg high fashion isn't a workable aesthetic.<br/><br/>That image looks rather gypsy (Romanni)  which has some very interesting connotations giving my chosen aesthetic. It was during that exact era that the Romanni people were mass imprisoned.<br/><br/>Edit: Of course this is fantasy so looks will be made a bit "sexier" and magical.
