The Strike of Colliers in Durham - A Glimpse into the Turbulent Times of 19th Century Coal Mining
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This photo print, titled "The Strike of Colliers in Durham" takes us back to a significant moment in history, shedding light on the struggles faced by coal miners during the 19th century. The engraving, created by an English School artist and part of a private collection, vividly captures the intensity and determination etched on the faces of these brave colliers. Set against a backdrop of humble cottages and picturesque villages in County Durham, this image transports us to Bishop Auckland's Oakenshaw region. Here, pitmen from various coal mines united for what would become known as the Great Meeting – an emblematic display of industrial action. In this powerful scene, we witness batts being ejected from their homes due to their involvement in this strike. Their resolute stance reflects their unwavering commitment to fighting for better working conditions and fair treatment within the treacherous coal mining industry. Through this engraving's intricate details and expressive figures, we are given a glimpse into the hardships endured by these courageous individuals who risked everything for justice. It serves as a poignant reminder that behind every historical event lies real people with hopes and dreams. As we admire this remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, let us honor those who paved the way for workers' rights while acknowledging that progress often comes at great cost.
