EDITORS COMMENTS
. This poignant lithograph, titled "The Colliery Strikes, Distress in the Lancashire Colliery Districts" captures a powerful scene during a period of industrial unrest in 19th-century England. Created by William Douglas Almond, this artwork provides a window into the hardships faced by coal miners and their families. In this image, we witness a gathering of weary men, women, and children waiting anxiously for news amidst heaps of waste coal. The atmosphere is one of despair and desperation as they endure the consequences of ongoing colliery strikes. A prominent orator passionately addresses the crowd, his words carrying hope amid their misery. Children are not exempt from this distressing reality; their innocent faces reveal both vulnerability and resilience. Some appear malnourished while others seek solace in each other's presence. Nearby stands a soup kitchen—a symbol of support for those affected by these challenging times. Through intricate engraving techniques, Almond masterfully conveys the emotional toll that industrial action has taken on Lancashire's mining communities. This print originally appeared in The Illustrated London News in September 1893—shedding light on an important chapter in history. "The Colliery Strikes" serves as a reminder that behind every labor dispute lies human suffering and struggle.
