EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lithograph, titled "Coal Breaker on the River, 1910" was created by Joseph Pennell. The image takes us back to the early 20th century, offering a glimpse into the coal industry's rich heritage. The print showcases an imposing coal breaker situated along a serene riverbank. Its architectural grandeur stands in stark contrast to the natural landscape surrounding it. This powerful juxtaposition highlights both man's industrial prowess and nature's enduring beauty. Pennell masterfully captures the essence of this bustling colliery during daylight hours. The lithography technique used adds depth and texture to every detail, making it feel almost tangible. From afar, we can see workers going about their daily tasks while smoke billows from chimneys atop the structure. This print serves as a testament to Pennell's skill as an artist and his ability to immortalize significant moments in history through visual storytelling. It reminds us of the vital role that coal mining played in shaping communities and economies during this era. "Coal Breaker on the River, 1910" is not just a mere depiction; it is a window into our past—a reminder of our collective industrial heritage that should be cherished for generations to come.
