Two supervisors talk before a mine plan

In front of a large plan of the workings pinned to the wall, a grey-haired man in a worn jacket stands talking with a miner in a leather helmet and a heavy coat, whose face is black with coal dust; the light falls from the side on their faces. The source places the scene at the Victoria Mathias colliery in the centre of Essen, where the surface supervisor discusses the output of coal with the underground supervisor.
