Description

The Miners from Beringen captures the lives of coalminers in the Belgian mining town of Beringen. Reinout van den Bergh employs a documentary approach, focusing on portraits and scenes that reveal the environment and conditions tied to this industrial community.

The 64-page book, produced by Eriskay Connection in 2014, assembles images that explore labor, identity, and the social fabric shaped by mining. Van den Bergh’s photographs convey the grit and resilience inherent in the daily reality of these workers and their locale.
