Marcinelle 1956 #[nn]

A solitary miner's silhouette stands against a stark white background, framed by a sweeping dark arc — a quietly powerful image that speaks to both isolation and the weight of underground labor. Sergio Salma's Marcinelle 1956, published by Casterman's Écritures imprint, draws on one of Belgium's most sobering historical chapters, rendered here with striking minimalist restraint. This 2012 volume carries real emotional gravity before a single interior page is turned.
