EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the early 20th century captures the essence of a post-war era marked by energy consumption and production, as well as the impact it had on coal prices. The image showcases a miner in the top left corner, symbolizing the backbone of this industry that fueled society's needs. A prominent coal deposit stands tall, representing both abundance and demand. Intriguingly, amidst this scene is an ordinary consumer carrying a bag of coal home. This juxtaposition highlights how individuals were directly affected by increased prices and scarcity caused by economic crisis and inflation after the war. It serves as a reminder of how essential coal was for daily life during that time. The significance of this print is further emphasized by its presence on the cover of "Le petit journal" dated May 9th, 1920. As one of France's leading publications at that time, it aimed to inform readers about pressing societal issues such as energy consumption and production. Stefano Bianchetti's masterful engraving brings depth to this artwork, capturing not only historical context but also evoking emotions through intricate details. Through his skillful handiwork, he immortalizes an era defined by industrial growth and economic challenges. This print offers us a glimpse into history while reminding us of our reliance on energy sources like coal in shaping societies past and present.
