This print takes us back to the 19th century, offering a glimpse into the world of coal mining during that era. The image is an engraving from "Sciences at the reach of all - Popular physics and chemistry" by Alexis Clerc, showcasing the laborious process of extracting coal from deep within the earth. The intricate cross-section depicted in this engraving reveals the complex network of tunnels and chambers that miners navigated daily. It highlights both the physical challenges faced by these brave individuals as well as their indispensable role in fueling industrial progress. The human element is emphasized through the presence of a miner diligently working amidst this dark underground landscape. His figure serves as a reminder of countless others who dedicated their lives to this demanding profession, often enduring harsh conditions for meager wages. Stefano Bianchetti's expertly captured image captures not only the technical aspects but also evokes a sense of historical significance. This private collection piece offers viewers an opportunity to reflect on how far we have come since those times while acknowledging our reliance on fossil fuels throughout history.
