EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Believe it or not" we are transported back to the gritty mining town of Normanton in Yorkshire, August 1972. Amidst the coal-stained landscape and towering pit structures, a remarkable figure emerges from the shadows. Meet Margaret Dominiak, Yorkshires Coal Queen, defying expectations with her presence in oversized overalls and a pit helmet. Margaret's striking appearance challenges conventional notions of beauty as she proudly represents her community's resilience and strength during an era dominated by male miners. Her determination shines through as she fearlessly navigates the treacherous depths of the mine, embodying both grace and grit. This photograph captures a pivotal moment in history when women were beginning to break barriers previously reserved for men. Margaret's reign as Coal Queen symbolizes empowerment for all working-class women who fought against societal norms to prove their worth beyond traditional gender roles. Varley's expert lens immortalizes this significant chapter with profound authenticity. The contrast between Margaret's soot-covered face and her regal poise is nothing short of awe-inspiring. As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded that true beauty transcends appearances; it lies within one's spirit and unwavering belief in oneself. Let us honor Margaret Dominiak - a beacon of hope amidst darkness - forever etched into our memories through Varley's timeless masterpiece from Memory Lane Prints.
