Description:
A man and woman face the viewer with grim, somber expressions. The man, a miner, wears a cap and a button-down shirt with a jacket. His clentched fist is held up below his chin. In the background are plain houses and industrial mining equipment in a hilly landscape. The sky is dark and gloomy.
