This print captures a significant moment in the history of the coal mining industry in South Wales during 1875. The image showcases a coal mine lockout, where determined mine workers gather to negotiate their demands with their employers. Their faces adorned with impressive facial hair, these hardworking men engage in intense discussions about setting accounts and securing leave to pick coal on the tips. The engraving, originally featured in The Illustrated London News on February 20th, 1875, provides a glimpse into the challenges faced by laborers during this era of industrial dispute. With its monochrome aesthetic and Victorian ambiance, this print transports us back to a time when negotiations between workers and management were crucial for fair employment practices. Located amidst the rugged landscapes of Wales, this scene represents not only an isolated incident but also reflects the struggles faced by countless miners across Britain's coal industry at that time. Each figure present embodies resilience and determination as they fight for better working conditions. Preserved by The Print Collector archives today, this historical artifact reminds us of the importance of collective bargaining and solidarity among workers throughout history.
