As Blossom and Decay intertwined outside its doors, another educational institution, Oxford's New College, stood tall as a beacon of knowledge since its establishment in 1379. Meanwhile, along the banks of the Thames River, intrepid mudlarks scoured through history by unearthing artifacts from centuries past. Among their finds were remnants of an era when the majestic Red Admiral Butterfly fluttered freely across England's landscapes. Across the Atlantic Ocean in America, tensions brewed as Thomas Cochrane's Dundonald ship sailed towards uncertain waters. The United States found itself on the precipice of division and conflict that would soon erupt into Civil War. On stage and screen alike, Anton Chekhov made waves with his Moscow Art Theatre group while also leaving his mark on literature for generations to come. In Lady Godiva fashionably rode through Coventry streets atop her horse to challenge societal norms. Gustav Mahler captured hearts not only with his enchanting music but also through a timeless photograph that immortalized his passion for composition.
