The miner, to the rear is in helmet, head lamp, singlet, trousers with knee-pads and boots. His barefoot wife stands to his right holding a baby in a shawl. His young pony-tailed daughter stands to his left in a skirt and sandals. His hands rest on their shoulders. The ground beneath them is covered in small lumps of coal.
