A four story Romanesque Palazzo in Dorsoduro across the Grand Canal from San Marco close to San Palo and within walking distance of the Rialto Bridge. The stucco a soft green with age, statues in the roman style lined the water front and the court yard is the center piece to the entire building.

Elizabeth is renovating the entire Palazzo in lieu of a lease.

No proper ladies lounge, not by far. One would think she had a man of the house that indulged in hunting and other gentlemanly sport. Liquors filled many cabinets and tobacco from many favored sources. Small gaming tables from several nations and predominantly as the room focal point, a chess board with a skillfully carved set. Weapons lined the walls, nothing as immaculate as a shining suit of armor, but small pieces that Elizabeth had learned how to use with fair skill. Swords, rapier, pistol, bow and arrow all common devices and nothing any man wouldn’t know how to utilize. And between the games, weapons and social indulgences were the busts of famous horses, from the mythical to the historical. A painting of her treasured Keska her Arabian stallion hung above the mantel. The furnishing in this room were easy to care for, and not delicate, most definitely expensive leather and well worn then any fine velvet or silk. The tables all of hardy woods with marble tops and everything was in tobacco browns and iodized coppers.

The room done in a teal that warred against the fabrics vermilion reds that covered the bed and windows held some of her defined personality but not the majority of it.
