A sculptural tableau produced by Mining Memories (NE), crafted from deep mined coal. The piece depicts a figural genre scene of a domestic interior, specifically a washhouse or kitchen. A woman is shown assisting a man bathing in a large, round tub. The base features a small dog and a textured area suggesting a rug or cat. A tall, detailed background panel depicts a kitchen setup, including a central fireplace or stove surrounded by cookware and cabinets. The underside of the base contains the original manufacturer’s label marked “Mining Memories (NE) Handcrafted Figures made with deep mined coal Telephone 01670 363808.” A faint handwritten number, possibly 3050, is visible on the top edge of the background panel.
