EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white wood engraving takes us back to the year 1857, offering a glimpse into the bustling salt mine at Saltville, Virginia. The image showcases the industriousness of American workers during this era as they toil away in an industry crucial for commerce and trade. The print captures the essence of early industrialization with its towering chimney billowing smoke into the sky. The intricate details highlight every aspect of this thriving mine: from the well-structured mill to the hardworking laborers who are diligently engaged in their tasks. Among them is an African American worker, a poignant reminder of the diverse workforce that contributed significantly to America's growth. Located in South East Virginia, Saltville was renowned for its rich salt deposits which played a vital role in various industries such as food preservation and leather tanning. This image transports us back to a time when mines like these were at their peak, driving economic prosperity across not only Virginia but also throughout middle America. As we admire this historic print by The Granger Collection, we are reminded of how far our society has come since those days of manual labor and heavy industry. It serves as both a testament to human ingenuity and progress while honoring those whose tireless efforts laid the foundation for future generations.
