'The Collier' is my favourite of all the plates in George Walker's 'The Costume of Yorkshire,' (1813) featuring the Middleton Colliery and associated Railway near Leeds. It became the first to commercially use steam locomotives including the locomotive Salamanca (1812)

'Snow at Durham Wharf.' (1947) As a self-taught artist, Julian Trevelyan passionately believed that art should be part of everyday life; he admired Alfred Wallis and visited the Pitmen Painters in their tin hut studio at Ashington Colliery. Durham Wharf was his studio in London.
During the #ExploreArts inspiration day, the kids discovered different spaces & stories in our #colliery #heritage site. They met a writer who was a bit flummoxed, she needed their help to create characters for a new story! #takeoverday (illustrations by @Katiedraws)

Norman Cornish 'Self Portrait.' The most famous of the pit painters. He was once described as a 'mystic with a total grasp of what makes matter vibrate, from coal to colliery rows, from the workings 1,500ft below ground to the bus stop and the chapel at the end of the street.'
