EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Plate 203. Bending Over a Trestle with Water Jar" captures a moment frozen in time from Eadweard Muybridge's groundbreaking series, "Animal Locomotion". Taken between 1872 and 1885, this collotype print showcases Muybridge's pioneering work in early motion picture sequences. In this particular frame, we see a woman leaning over a trestle with a water jar in her hands. The nude female figure adds an element of vulnerability and rawness to the image. With her body gracefully bent and her gaze focused on the task at hand, she exudes both strength and sensuality. Muybridge's scientific approach to photography is evident here as he meticulously studies movement through sequential frames. Each frame tells its own story within the larger narrative of animal locomotion. This photograph serves as both an artistic expression and a valuable scientific study. Preserved by the Addison Gallery of American Art at Phillips Academy in Andover, MA, USA, this print is part of their collection gifted by the Edwin J. Beinecke Trust. Its presence within their gallery speaks to its significance as an important piece of art history. As we delve into this mesmerizing image captured by Bridgeman Images for Fine Art Finder, we are reminded of Muybridge's lasting impact on photography and his ability to capture fleeting moments that would otherwise go unnoticed or forgotten.
