EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Plate 47. Walking, and Turning Around" is a remarkable print by Eadweard Muybridge from his renowned series "Animal Locomotion". Created between 1872-85, this collotype on paper measures 21.3x29.4 cm and is housed in the Addison Gallery of American Art at Phillips Academy in Andover, MA. Muybridge's groundbreaking work in early motion picture sequences revolutionized the way we perceive movement. In this particular plate from Volume III of "Animal Locomotion" he focuses on women's locomotion with a nude subject. The image captures a sequential study of a woman walking and turning around gracefully. Through stop-motion frames meticulously captured by Muybridge, we witness the fluidity and elegance of her movements frozen in time. Beyond its aesthetic appeal, this photograph holds scientific significance as it contributes to our understanding of human locomotion. Muybridge's meticulous documentation paved the way for advancements in photography as well as studies on movement and kinetics. As we observe this mesmerizing print, we are invited to appreciate both the artistic beauty inherent in human motion and the scientific curiosity that drives us to unravel its mysteries.
