EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful photograph captures the harsh reality of child labor in the 19th century. Titled "Child labour; carusi, miners, enter the mine" this print by an unknown artist depicts a group of young boys entering a mine in Sicily. The image is part of a private collection and showcases the disturbing truth about children being forced into dangerous work at such a tender age. The engraving highlights the traditional aspect of child labor in Sicilian society during that time period. These carusi, or child miners, were part of a population where learning was overshadowed by manual labor from an early age. The solemn expressions on their faces speak volumes about their lost childhoods and stolen innocence. Giancarlo Costa's expert capture freezes this moment in history, shedding light on a dark chapter that should never be forgotten. It serves as a reminder to us all about the importance of protecting our youth and ensuring they have access to education rather than being subjected to exploitative practices. This photograph is not just an artistic masterpiece but also acts as documentation for future generations to understand the struggles faced by children who were forced into hard labor against their will. Let it serve as motivation for us to continue fighting against child exploitation and advocating for every child's right to grow up free from such hardships.
