Create a gothic portrait of a young woman with an intricate braided hairstyle, crowned with roses, seated gracefully in a dimly lit room. She wears a sleek black dress with lace accents, exuding elegance and mystery. In the background, include a faintly glowing full moon visible through a window, adding a surreal ambiance. Utilize Edward Gorey's characteristic cross-hatching technique to convey intricate textures--particularly in the braid, lace details, and the reflective fabric of the dress. Maintain a balance between the figure's soft expression and the melancholic atmosphere. Use minimal background elements to highlight the subject's ethereal presence, ensuring strategic use of negative space to evoke tension. Subtle motifs like a rose resting on a nearby table or the shadow of a bird in the moonlight can enhance the narrative symbolism. Let the composition blend Gothic romance with a sense of quiet enigma.
