EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the Ormonde Colliery in the 1920s, a magnificent building dedicated to coal mining. The architectural beauty of this colliery is evident in its impressive facade and exterior design. Standing tall against the backdrop of a clear day, it exudes an aura of strength and industrial prowess. Located in Derbyshire, England, this colliery played a significant role in the coal industry during the early 20th century. Its strategic position near a railway line allowed for efficient transportation of coal via trains and locomotives. This image captures one such train passing by, symbolizing both progress and reliance on this vital mode of transport. The rich color palette adds depth to the photograph, bringing life to every detail captured by CM Dixon's lens. It serves as a visual time capsule that takes us back to an era when coal mining was at its peak. As we admire this remarkable piece of history preserved through Mike Dixon's lens, let us reflect on how industries like these shaped our world today. This print not only celebrates architecture but also pays homage to the hardworking individuals who contributed their labor within these walls.
