In the background, two 'ventilators' man a ventilating door, ensuring that fresh air circulates through the underground tunnels. The scene is filled with movement and industry, showcasing the hard work and dedication of miners during this era.
The artist has skillfully captured every aspect of life in a coal mine, from the rugged walls of the shaft to the worn tools used by workers. This engraving serves as a reminder of our industrial past and pays homage to those who labored tirelessly underground.
