EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Believe it or not" we are transported back to the gritty coal mines of Yorkshire in August 1972. Standing proudly amidst the darkness and grime is none other than Margaret Dominiak, known as Yorkshires Coal Queen. Clad in oversized overalls and a pit helmet, she embodies strength and resilience. Margaret's presence exudes an unexpected beauty that defies conventional notions. Her determination shines through her dirt-streaked face, symbolizing the unwavering spirit of those who toiled underground. The contrast between her delicate features and the harsh surroundings only amplifies her remarkable character. This photograph captures a pivotal moment in history when coal mining was at its peak, providing livelihoods for countless families while shaping entire communities. It serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by miners like Margaret, whose tireless efforts fueled industrial progress. As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded that true beauty lies not only in physical appearance but also in courage and perseverance. Margaret Dominiak represents both these qualities effortlessly – a queen ruling over her domain deep within the earth's belly. Varley's masterful composition immortalizes an era long gone but never forgotten; it pays homage to those who dedicated their lives to extracting black gold from beneath our feet. This print stands as a testament to human strength amidst adversity and serves as an inspiration for generations yet to come.
