This print from 1893 showcases the Blue Hills Mine in St Agnes, Cornwall. The image captures a group of nine miners deep underground, their faces etched with determination and resilience. These men are not just colleagues but also family members or close friends, forming what is known as a "pare" - a tight-knit group recruited to work together in the treacherous mines. Photographed by John Charles Burrow, this snapshot offers us a glimpse into the harsh realities of Victorian mining life. The dimly lit tunnel serves as a stark backdrop for these brave individuals who risked their lives daily to extract valuable minerals from the earth's depths. Cornwall has long been associated with its rich mining heritage, and this photograph encapsulates that history perfectly. It reminds us of the immense challenges faced by those who toiled beneath the surface, enduring grueling conditions and constant danger.
