Miners, change, Nikolay Alekseevich Kasatkin, 1895

I think this is really interesting and I'm not sure why or how it has this sort of ghostly thing happening, like we are in a different but neighboring dimension. Maybe we look like that to the miners, that's why they're staring at us with glowing eyes. Or it's a haunted mine, and hasn't been in operation for years, and we're witnessing the moment before a big cave-in when hundreds of miners died. Agh! holding our heads as the ghost vision hits us. There's injustice here and it's up to us to tell the truth about what happened.😁

Good night 🤣
