A Novelty in the Struggles of Work, in England
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating colour lithograph by Achille Beltrame that offers a glimpse into the complex world of labor struggles in early 20th century England. The image showcases a group of miners, numbering in the millions, gathered together to decide whether or not to declare a strike through secret suffrage. This powerful illustration was originally featured in Courier Sunday on September 19-26,1920. The composition captures the tension and determination etched on the faces of these hardworking men as they exercise their right to vote. Amongst them stands a young boy, symbolizing both the impact and future implications of such decisions on generations to come. Beltrame's attention to detail brings this historical moment alive; from billowing smoke rising from chimneys representing industrial action, to trade union banners proudly displayed. This print serves as an important reminder of the political power held by workers during this era and highlights their unity against oppressive working conditions. It also sheds light on Britain's rich mining heritage and its significance within European history. Displayed here with permission from Look and Learn via Bridgeman Images, "A Novelty in the Struggles of Work, in England" invites viewers to reflect upon past struggles for workers' rights while contemplating their relevance today.
