EDITORS COMMENTS
This poignant print captures the harsh living conditions of a Welsh collier family during a strike in South Wales. The interior of their crowded cottage is depicted as one room, with every corner occupied by members of the family and their small animal companion.
In the center of the room, a woman is diligently doing laundry while another sits with two children and a small dog or cat. A man stands nearby, holding his colliery implement, symbolizing his connection to the coal mining industry that has brought hardship upon them. Presiding over this scene is a dejected looking bird in a cage, perhaps mirroring the feelings of hopelessness felt by the family during this challenging time.
The image provides a glimpse into the daily struggles faced by Welsh colliers and their families in 1873. It serves as a reminder of the sacrifices made by working-class individuals in pursuit of fair wages and better living conditions.
This historical photograph from Mary Evans Prints Online offers viewers an opportunity to reflect on the resilience and strength exhibited by those who endured difficult circumstances during this period in history.
