EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the late 1800s takes us on a journey back in time to the depths of East Pool Mine in Illogan, Cornwall. The image showcases a group of hardworking miners, their weary faces telling tales of laborious days spent underground. With stoic expressions and dirt-streaked clothing, they are captured here in a rare moment of respite, seated together amidst the darkness. Photographer John Charles Burrow skillfully captures both the physical toll and camaraderie that defined Cornish mining during this Victorian era. His lens transports us into an environment where determination and perseverance were essential for survival. The dimly lit surroundings serve as a stark reminder of the challenging conditions these men faced daily. The significance of this photograph lies not only in its historical value but also in its ability to evoke emotions and spark curiosity about Cornwall's rich mining heritage. It serves as a poignant tribute to those who dedicated their lives to extracting precious minerals from deep within the earth. Preserved by the Royal Cornwall Museum, this remarkable print offers viewers an opportunity to reflect upon our industrial past while honoring the resilience and sacrifices made by generations before us.
