Description: Down a steep wooden stairway beside a brick building comes a stream of miners, their faces and clothes black with coal dust, caps on their heads and lamps in their hands; they crowd shoulder to shoulder on the steps and hold the rail as they descend toward the camera. The source names the Ewald colliery near Buer and describes the miners leaving work for the baths.
