Stake attention in this memory
A dark, silhouetted bronze statue of a miner stands prominently on a multi-sided stone pedestal. The figure is depicted in an active, forward-striding pose, holding a pickaxe in its left hand with the head near the base, and an unidentified spherical object aloft in its raised right hand. A satchel is visible over the miner's left shoulder. A rectangular plaque is affixed to one visible face of the pedestal. The monument is situated on a neatly maintained green lawn. To the left of the statue, several tall palm trees are visible, while various flowering shrubs with purple and yellow blooms appear to the right of the pedestal. The sky is entirely overcast with a dense layer of grey and white clouds. The bottom edge of the image shows a dark grey curb with a distinct yellow dividing line. Numerous small, white, semi-transparent specks are scattered across the image, consistent with precipitation on the camera lens. This monument is identified as 'The Miner' statue, located at the intersection of Eloff Street and Commissioner Street in the central business district of Johannesburg, South Africa.
