EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "A Colliery in the Early 19th Century" takes us on a visual journey back to the industrial era of England. From the renowned book "Short History of the English People" by J. R. Green, published in London in 1893, this image offers a glimpse into the world of colliers and miners. The photograph showcases a bustling coal mine with its towering structures and hardworking miners. The scene is filled with activity as workers go about their daily tasks, extracting precious coal from deep within the earth. A horse-drawn roller can be seen nearby, symbolizing both strength and reliance on animal power during that time. The composition captures not only the physicality of mining but also highlights an intriguing piece of machinery – a crushing circle used for breaking down large chunks of coal into smaller pieces. This innovative technology demonstrates how advancements were being made even during this early period. Ken Welsh's expertly captured print allows us to immerse ourselves in this historical moment, appreciating both the ingenuity and labor involved in mining operations during the 19th century. It serves as a reminder of our ancestors' resilience and determination as they worked tirelessly to fuel England's growing industries. As we gaze upon this remarkable image, we are transported back to an era where mines were at their peak production levels – forever etching themselves into history as crucial contributors to England's economic growth.
