Unloading Coal, 1880/89
EDITORS COMMENTS
by Henry Hamilton Bennett captures the essence of industrial America in the late 19th century. This albumen print stereo, numbered 934 from the series "Milwaukee and Vicinity" showcases a pivotal moment in history when coal was a vital source of fuel for the growing nation. In this image, we see men diligently working on a ship at Milwaukee River's mouth. The scene is bustling with activity as workers unload large piles of coal onto gangplanks that connect the vessel to land. The black and white composition adds depth to the photograph, emphasizing both the stark contrast between light and shadow and highlighting every detail. Bennett's expertise in photography shines through as he expertly captures not only the physical labor but also conveys a sense of industry and progress. The ship symbolizes America's booming shipping industry during this era, while also serving as a reminder of how crucial coal was for powering factories and homes alike. This print serves as an important historical document, offering us a glimpse into an era defined by rapid industrialization. It reminds us of our country's reliance on natural resources like coal to propel economic growth forward. As we admire this piece at Art Institute Chicago or any other art center or gallery fortunate enough to house it, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand one small aspect of America's journey towards becoming an industrial powerhouse.
