EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Plate 529. Various Poses, 1872-85" is a print by the renowned photographer Eadweard Muybridge. The image belongs to his groundbreaking series called "Animal Locomotion" published in 1887. Measuring at 17.2x45.6 cm, this collotype on paper captures a sequence of frames showcasing different poses and movements of a male figure. Muybridge's work was instrumental in the development of early motion pictures and stop-motion animation techniques. The photo offers an intriguing glimpse into the scientific study of movement during that era. With meticulous attention to detail, Muybridge meticulously documented each pose with precision and accuracy. In this particular frame, we see a nude male subject outstretched in full length with arms posed gracefully in mid-air. The nudity adds an element of vulnerability and rawness to the composition while highlighting the human form's beauty and gracefulness. As one explores this photograph further, it becomes evident that Muybridge's work transcends mere documentation; it is also a testament to artistic expression through photography. Currently housed at the Addison Gallery of American Art in Andover, MA, USA, this print serves as a valuable historical artifact within their collection—a gift from the Edwin J. Beinecke Trust. Overall, Plate 529 invites viewers to appreciate both its scientific significance as well as its aesthetic appeal—an exquisite blend of artistry and scientific inquiry captured through Muybridge's
