Telmo & Miel honor the mining history in La Louvière with a realistic mural
This mural can be found near Bois-du-Luc, the oldest mine in Belgium that closed in 1973 and is now UNESCO World Heritage. With this portrait of Marco Recchia, a 95-year-old mineworker and on top of that the last one currently alive, Telmo Miel pays a grand homage to the mining legacy and heritage.
