EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the heart of Britain's coal industry in the 19th century. The image showcases the Bradley coal mine, located near Bilston, England, in 1886. A remarkable piece from Charles Tomlinson's Cyclopaedia of Useful Arts, Mechanical and Chemical, Manufactures, Mining, and Engineering volume I. In this engraving captured by an unknown creator, we witness a scene that evokes mixed emotions. At first glance, it portrays the industriousness of the era with miners diligently working underground. However, upon closer inspection, our attention is drawn to a pit pony - an animal subjected to harsh conditions as part of their laborious duties. The presence of this horse serves as a stark reminder of both progress and exploitation within this vital industry. The pit ponies were integral to mining operations during that time period but often endured grueling work environments deep beneath the earth's surface. This photograph encapsulates not only a specific location or concept but also represents an entire era defined by its reliance on coal mining for industrial growth. It offers us insight into the hardships faced by both humans and animals alike during this pivotal moment in British history. As we reflect on this monochrome snapshot frozen in time by The Print Collector agency (not mentioning commercial use), let it serve as a testament to our collective responsibility towards preserving historical records while acknowledging past injustices inflicted upon innocent creatures like these hardworking horses.
