EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Plate 530. Various Poses, 1872-85" captures the essence of early motion picture sequences through a series of frames depicting different poses. Taken by renowned photographer Eadweard Muybridge between 1872 and 1885, this collotype print measures 23.2x31.3 cm and is housed in the Addison Gallery of American Art at Phillips Academy in Andover, MA. Part of Muybridge's groundbreaking project "Animal Locomotion" published in 1887, this particular plate belongs to Volume II dedicated to male subjects in various states of undress. The image showcases a man standing with his arms raised in different angles - from rear view to side profile and frontal shot. Muybridge's work revolutionized scientific photography as he sought to study movement through sequential images captured using stop-motion techniques. This specific print offers an intriguing glimpse into the human form and its potential for artistic expression. The stark contrast between light and shadow adds depth to each pose while emphasizing the nakedness of the subject. Despite being over a century old, these photographs continue to captivate viewers with their timeless beauty and scientific significance. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images' collection on Fine Art Finder, we are reminded of Muybridge's pioneering spirit that paved the way for modern-day cinematography and our understanding of human locomotion.
