EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Early representation of the Divining Rod" takes us back to the late 19th century when mining was a crucial industry in Great Britain. The image showcases two parallel worlds - one above ground and one below. In the foreground, we see a figure holding a divining rod, an ancient tool believed to have mystical powers in locating water, coal, or even gold. This individual represents the age-old practice of dowsing or divination. With intense focus and determination etched on their face, they are seen searching for hidden treasures beneath the earth's surface. Meanwhile, in stark contrast below ground lies another scene entirely - that of hardworking miners toiling tirelessly amidst darkness and dust. Their faces smeared with grime tell tales of laborious efforts as they strive to extract precious coal from deep within the mine shafts. Published in The Strand Magazine in 1897 during a time when journalism played an influential role in society, this illustration captures not only the physical aspects but also reflects upon themes such as human ingenuity and perseverance. It serves as a reminder of how people have always sought ways to harness nature's resources for their benefit. As we gaze at this remarkable piece from Ken Welsh's private collection today, it transports us back to an era where both science and superstition coexisted harmoniously; where hope mingled with sweat underground while dreams soared high above ground.
