EDITORS COMMENTS
COLORADO: MINERS, c1890. A glimpse into the lives of miners and their families at the Hillside Mine near Cripple Creek, Colorado. This photograph, taken by J. G. Wilson in the late 19th century, transports us to a time when gold rush fever gripped the American West. In this frame, we see a diverse group of men and women dressed in fashion typical of the era - men donning suits and stovepipe hats while women wear bonnets and dresses. The miner's tools such as hammers and picks rest against wooden structures that surround them. The presence of family members adds warmth to this scene; children with wide-eyed curiosity stand beside their parents who have dedicated themselves to extracting precious gold from deep within the earth. The horsemen nearby serve as a reminder of transportation methods during this period. This image captures not only the physical labor involved in mining but also highlights the sense of community that developed among these pioneers as they ventured westward for opportunity and fortune. It symbolizes an important chapter in American history - one marked by perseverance, determination, and hope for a better future. Preserved through time by The Granger Collection's Carousel Collection, this print allows us to appreciate both the hardships endured by these miners and their unwavering spirit amidst challenging conditions.
