EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Royal Cornwall Museum takes us back to the year 1863, capturing a poignant moment in history at St Ives Consols in Cornwall. The image showcases a team of workers, each playing their part in the mining industry that defined this region for centuries. What strikes us immediately is the diversity within this workforce. Amongst them are child labourers known as "Bal Boys" and women referred to as "Bal Maidens". This glimpse into the past reminds us of how different societal norms were during that era, where individuals of all ages and genders contributed to such laborious tasks. The photographer behind this remarkable snapshot is Dr R. D. Slack, who skillfully captures both the physical exertion etched on these workers' faces and their unwavering determination. It serves as a testament to their resilience amidst challenging conditions underground. Part of the esteemed A. K. Hamilton Jenkin collection, this photograph offers an invaluable insight into Cornish mining heritage. It allows us to reflect upon an industry that shaped countless lives and communities throughout history. As we admire this historical gem preserved by the Royal Cornwall Museum, let it serve as a reminder of our collective responsibility to honor those who came before us while striving for progress and equality in our own time.
