As we delve into the scene, we notice both male and female figures strolling through the gardens, their presence adding an element of human connection amidst nature's splendor. Their attire reflects the fashion trends of that era, further immersing us in this historical moment frozen in time. The grand greenhouse stands tall at one end of the garden, its glass panels allowing sunlight to filter through and nourish an array of exotic plants within.
