EDITORS COMMENTS
This sepia-toned print captures a historic moment in the mining industry. Titled "The Man Engine at Cooks Kitchen Mine" it is an illustration from the book "Mongst mines and miners, or Underground Scenes by Flash-Light" by J. C. Burrows and William Thomas, published in 1893. The image showcases a group of labourers working diligently at Cornish Dolcoath Mine in Cornwall during the Victorian era. The men are seen amidst scaffolding, their faces marked with determination as they carry out their arduous tasks underground. This photograph provides a glimpse into the industrial world of that time, highlighting the hard work and dedication of these male workers. It serves as a testament to their resilience and strength in an era where manual labor was essential for economic growth. Captured with great detail and precision through early photography techniques, this image offers viewers a window into history. It allows us to appreciate both the advancements made since then and the challenges faced by those who worked tirelessly to extract valuable resources from beneath our feet. As part of The Stapleton Collection held privately, this print stands as a valuable piece of historical documentation. Its inclusion within Fine Art Finder's collection ensures its preservation for future generations to learn about our past struggles and achievements in various industries such as mining.
