Standing beside him are his wife and son, both wearing sturdy work attire that blends seamlessly with their surroundings. The miners' worn felt hats sit atop heads covered in coal dust, while flickering candles illuminate their determined faces. A large barrel rests nearby - perhaps containing tools or provisions for their arduous day ahead.
