Die Bergknappen in ihren Berufs- und Familienleben
An 1857 German lithograph album by Eduard Heuchler, published by Rudolf Kuntze, showing miners at work and at home, intended for a general readership interested in mining. The plates are detailed, sepia-toned interior scenes of workshops, shafts and surface tasks, useful to a designer seeking period working-life compositions, crowded tableaux of labourers, and the textures of timber, brick and tools in nineteenth-century industry.
